Iatropathic injuries of peripheral nerves [PDF]

open access: possibleThe Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 2001
This is a retrospective study of 612 cases of iatropathic injury to peripheral nerves seen in one tertiary referral unit between 1991 and 1998. A total of 291 patients was subsequently operated on to explore the nerve lesion. The most common presenting symptom was pain, which often masked underlying loss of function.

Peripheral nerve injury

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1994
Knowledge of the actions of conventional neurotrophic factors on peripheral neurons is accumulating rapidly, and growth factors that were discovered outside the nervous system have been found to have neurotrophic actions. The nature and initiation of proximal neuronal responses to nerve injury, the interactions of Schwann cells and growth cones, and ...

PERIPHERAL NERVE INJURIES

Southern Medical Journal, 1919
INTRODUCTION Injury of peripheral nerves is the most frequent and important organic neurologic condition occurring as the result of war. These injuries have been carefully studied by the staff of American Red Cross Military Hospital No. 1, formerly the American Ambulance.

Peripheral nerve injuries

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1974
Abstract In the hand we should, in general, favour primary repair, but this should only be done if the state of the wound and of the nerve allows, and if the necessary surgical skill is available and the technical surroundings favourable.

PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY AND PERIPHERAL NERVE INJURY

Urologic Clinics of North America, 1996
The peripheral nerves to the bladder can be altered by several disease processes. Voiding symptoms alone are not reliable in predicting the exact neurogenic bladder dysfunction. Urodynamic evaluation is crucial to optimize therapy and to rule out concomitant pathology.

Peripheral nerve injury

Clinical Techniques in Small Animal Practice, 1996
Inadequate peripheral nerve regeneration as a result of trauma contributes greatly to the morbidity of surgical patients. Animals admitted as an emergency often have concurrent orthopaedic injuries that impair mobility and may mask peripheral nerve dysfunction if a thorough neurological examination is not performed.

Peripheral Nerve Injuries

2016
Peripheral Nerve Injuries (PNI) have always been a significant problem in war, particularly affecting recovery and rehabilitation after limb injuries; the most common site of wounding in conflict. It can be argued that war has actually been the stimulus, and provided much of the material, for our current understanding of PNI. The first systematic study

Peripheral Nerve Injuries

1989
In disaster or war with the likelihood of mass casualties and/or multitrauma wounded, peripheral nerve injury must nevertheless be diagnosed, even though this will not be a high priority function. In the unconscious or drugged patient diagnosis may be very difficult, but as soon as the casualty is able to cooperate a rapid neurological examination is ...

Peripheral Nerve Injury

2013
Accurate evaluation of peripheral nerve injury is crucial in planning treatment. Understanding the classification of Sunderland and Seddon helps in predicting prognosis. This chapter discusses the basic reactions to peripheral nerve injury, classification of peripheral nerve injury, and the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative ...

Peripheral Nerve Injury

2017
Peripheral nerve injury following primary total hip arthroplasty is a rare, but devastating complication. Factors contributing to nerve injury during total hip arthroplasty range from patient factors such as obesity, gender, and anatomic variance, to surgical technique and operative execution.
