Ultrasound of peripheral nerve injury

Pediatric Radiology, 2023
Nerve 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.

Iatrogenic injuries of peripheral nerves

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1991
In 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

Management of Peripheral Nerve Injuries

Postgraduate Medicine, 1965
Characteristic sensory and motor deficits arising from injuries of various peripheral nerves assist in localizing the damage. The lesion should be investigated surgically if there is doubt as to whether division of a nerve is complete or incomplete.

Rehabilitation of Peripheral Nerve Injuries

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1981
Rehabilitation 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.

Sports and peripheral nerve injury

The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 1983
Peripheral nerve injury is one of the serious compli cations of athletic injuries; however, they have rarely been reported. According to the report by Takazawa et al., 6 there were only 28 cases of peripheral nerve injury among 9,550 cases of sports injuries which had been treated in the ...

Classification of Peripheral Nerve Injury

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Clinics of North America
This 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 ...

Pleiotrophin and peripheral nerve injury

Neurosurgical Review, 2009
The proto-oncogene pleiotrophin, discovered in 1989, was considered as a multifunctional growth factor, which played an important role in tumor occurrence, development, and central nervous system. The latest research showed that pleiotrophin signal pathway probably participated in neural repair after peripheral nerve injury, especially in the following

Major Peripheral Nerve Injuries

Hand Clinics, 2013
Major 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.

Peripheral Nerve Response to Injury

Atlas of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinics, 2011
Oral and maxillofacial surgeons caring for patients who have sustained a nerve injury to a branch of the peripheral trigeminal nerve must possess a basic understanding of the response of the peripheral nerves to trauma. The series of events that subsequently take place are largely dependent on the injury type and severity.
