Surgical importance of using musculo-aponeurotic landmarks as a guide to identify the radial nerve in posterior approach for humeral fractures a cadaveric study in a south indian population [PDF]
Background & Aims: Long course of the radial nerve and its proximity to the humerus makes Radial Nerve (RN) prone to injury in diaphyseal fractures.

Treatment of Iatrogenic Nerve Injury After Humeral Shaft Fracture Fixation: A Case Report [PDF]
Background. Iatrogenic neuropathies of the radial nerve following intramedullary nailing of the humerus are observed in 2.9% of patients. In 30% of cases, iatrogenic nerve injury is associated with distal nail locking.

A Cadaver Study of Median-to-Radial Nerve Transfer for Radial Nerve Injuries [PDF]
To assess the anatomic feasibility of a median-to-radial nerve transfer in cadaver limbs and to quantify the number of axons present in the cut ends of the involved donor and recipient nerves.Ten fresh frozen cadaveric upper limbs were dissected. We investigated whether the flexor carpi radialis (FCR) branch/flexor digitorum superficialis (FDS) branch (

An anomalous pattern of superficial branch of radial nerve - a Cadaveric case report [PDF]
In the present case study, there is an anomalous pattern of superficial branch of radial nerve (SBRN) that can be recognized as an anatomical variant of the left upper limb of a 60 years old donated embalmed male cadaver in the Department of Human ...

Trifid radial nerve complicating a routine posterior approach to humeral shaft
The posterior approach to the humerus is one of the most common approaches used for osteosynthesis and exploration of the radial nerve. The radial nerve anomalies even though rare are a possibility that the operating surgeon should be aware of during ...

Beware the painful nerve palsy; neurostenalgia, a diagnosis not to be missed [PDF]
We present a case of painful radial nerve palsy following application of a humeral lengthening frame. At re-operation, the radial nerve was found to be compressed against a distal pin.

Myelination: all about Rac n roll. [PDF]
During the development of the peripheral nervous system, Schwann cells select individual axons from a nerve bundle and establish a one-to-one relationship through a process termed radial sorting. Recent findings identify the Rho family GTPase Rac1 as the

Radial nerve palsy after the use of an adjuvant hinged external fixator in a complex fracture-dislocation of the elbow: a case report and review of the literature. [PDF]
The combination of an elbow dislocation, a radial head fracture, and a coronoid process fracture is known as "terrible triad" injury of the elbow. This injury is one of the most challenging injuries of the musculoskeletal system and almost always causes ...
