Brachial Plexus Treatment

Bosnian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences, 2005
Brachial plexus injuries are devastating injuries that affect primarily young healthy males. For the total plexus injury, current surgical treatments have failed to achieve normal restoration of limb function but some practical goals are obtainable. This review article summarizes existing logic and approach for managing these catastrophic injuries.

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
