Using the main elbow flexion skin crease as an intraoperative parameter to determine the degree of exorotation needed for humeral derotational osteotomies in upper-type brachial plexus patients

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery, 2018
Even though one of the surgical techniques most frequently used to correct external rotation deformity of the shoulder in brachial plexus patients is a humeral derotational osteotomy, few intraoperative parameters has yet been identified to determine the

Supraclavicular Approach to the Brachial Plexus

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2023
Background:. The brachial plexus consists of an intricate array of nerves originating from the C5–T1 ventral rami of the spinal cord. Their course is complex and can be substantially distorted after injury.

Use of a Pedicled Vascularized Ulnar Nerve as a Long Graft for Complete Brachial Plexus Palsy in Adults to Restore Elbow Flexion: Should this Practice Continue?

Journal of Brachial Plexus and Peripheral Nerve Injury
Restoring elbow flexion is a priority in adults with complete brachial plexus palsy. If the nerve root is not avulsed, a graft can be placed between the existing root and the musculocutaneous nerve.

Biceps lasso loop and self-locking tenodesis alongside repair of rotator cuff tears: randomised controlled trial study protocol (BLAST 1)

BMJ Open
Introduction Pathology of the long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) frequently accompanies rotator cuff tears, with tenotomy and tenodesis often being used to address this pathology. While meta-analyses report comparable functional outcomes between these

Passage through the carotid sheath: An alternative path to the pre-spinal route for direct repair of contralateral C7 to the lower trunk in total brachial plexus root avulsion injury

Indian Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2016
Context: In surgical management of global brachial plexus injuries, direct repair of contralateral C7 (cC7) to the anterior division of the lower trunk, can produce good extrinsic finger flexion.

Intrasplenic Thymus Organogenesis from Injectable Tissue Fragments Restores Functional T‐Cell Immunity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Clinical intramuscular thymus transplantation yields only short‐lived efficacy and marginal therapeutic benefits. Benefiting from the spleen's intrinsic strengths—rapid vascular perfusion, abundant developmental factors, and resident progenitors—the intrasplenic thymic grafts achieve robust thymic regeneration and substantial T‐cell reconstitution ...
