Ultrasound of peripheral nerve injury
Pediatric Radiology, 2023Nerve injury in children is important to recognize early given the greater chance for recovery. Both children and adults have better outcomes the sooner nerve injuries are recognized and repaired. Children have even better functional results after surgical repair, thought to be related to their neural plasticity.

Update on peripheral nerve injuries
International Disability Studies, 1988Experimental work relating to factors affecting nerve regeneration is reviewed. There is increasing evidence that the nerve sprouts are preprogrammed for their peripheral reinnervation; old endoneurial tubes being discarded. Fascicular suture shows no significant improvement in function compared with epineural suture.

Iatrogenic injuries of peripheral nerves
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1991In this study, we discuss 68 cases in which peripheral nerve trunks were inadvertently divided by surgeons. Most of these accidents occurred in the course of planned operations. Delay in diagnosis and in effecting repair was common. We list the nerves particularly at risk and the operations in which special care is needed. We recommend steps to secure

Rehabilitation of Peripheral Nerve Injuries
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1981Rehabilitation of the patient with a peripheral nerve injury requires knowledge, understanding, and cooperation between the patient, the physician, and the therapist. Careful documentation of the patient's status prior to beginning rehabilitation and periodic follow-up assessments are of utmost importance.

The Electrophysiology of Peripheral Nerve Injuries
Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 1991Neurophysiologic tests currently used in the diagnosis and treatment of peripheral nerve trauma include EMG, NCV, late responses, SEPs, and intraoperative NAPs. The physiologic basis of these tests has been reviewed. Examples of typical applications have been provided.

Peripheral Nerve Injuries in the Athlete
Sports Medicine, 1997Peripheral nerves are susceptible to injury in the athlete because of the excessive physiological demands that are made on both the neurological structures and the soft tissues that protect them. The common mechanisms of injury are compression, traction, ischaemia and laceration.

Classification of Peripheral Nerve Injury
Magnetic Resonance Imaging Clinics of North AmericaThis review focuses on the critical role of MR neurography (MRN) in diagnosing and managing peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs). It emphasizes the ability of imaging to differentiate injuries that may heal spontaneously from those requiring surgery, using classification systems like Neuropathy Score Reporting and Data System with imaging findings ...

Peripheral Nerve Injury and Repair
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2000Peripheral nerve injuries are common, and there is no easily available formula for successful treatment. Incomplete injuries are most frequent. Seddon classified nerve injuries into three categories: neurapraxia, axonotmesis, and neurotmesis. After complete axonal transection, the neuron undergoes a number of degenerative processes, followed by ...

Management of Peripheral Nerve Injuries
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1986The choice between repair or reconstruction in the management of nerve injury, and the determination on timing and the type of neurorrhaphy technique are clinical decisions that should be based on thorough understanding of the pathophysiology of nerve injury, the physiology of nerve healing, and the anatomy of peripheral nerves.

Major Peripheral Nerve Injuries
Hand Clinics, 2013Major peripheral nerve injuries in the upper extremities can result in significant morbidity. Understanding the pathophysiology of these injuries aids in the assessment and planning of appropriate treatment. With limited nerve mobilization, tension-free repairs can often be performed using sutures, fibrin glue, or nerve connectors.
