Splinting for radial nerve palsy

Journal of Hand Therapy, 1987
Abstract The radial nerve is the most frequently injured major nerve of the upper extremity. Splinting to maintain joint motion and functional use of the hand is usually required until nerve recovery occurs or tendon transfer procedures are performed. A review of the literature reveals numerous splint designs for radial palsy.

Spontaneous nerve torsion: unusual cause of radial nerve palsy

Skeletal Radiology, 2014
Spontaneous nerve torsion is a rare cause of nerve palsy. We describe a case of nerve torsion affecting the radial nerve in order to inform radiologists of the existence of this condition and subtle features on cross-sectional imaging that can suggest the diagnosis preoperatively.

Median to radial nerve transfer for treatment of radial nerve palsy

Journal of Neurosurgery, 2007
✓The purpose of this study is to report a surgical technique of nerve transfer to restore radial nerve function after a complete palsy due to a proximal injury to the radial nerve. The authors report the case of a patient who underwent direct nerve transfer of redundant or expendable motor branches of the median nerve in the proximal forearm to the ...

Bilateral Predominant Radial Nerve Crutch Palsy

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1993
Axillary crutch palsy, although well described in the literature, is rarely seen in clinical practice. Little has been written in the contemporary orthopaedic literature. The purpose of this case report is to report on a well-documented axillary crutch palsy with bilateral, predominantly radial, nerve dysfunction that resolved spontaneously in eight ...

Radial nerve palsy caused by spontaneously occurring nerve torsion

Journal of Neurosurgery, 2001
✓ An 18-year-old man presented with a spontaneously occurring radial nerve palsy that spared the triceps muscle. At surgery, the portion of the radial nerve located at the midarm level had an hourglass-like appearance. Under magnification, an external—internal neurolysis of the narrowed portion of the hourglass-shaped portion revealed nerve torsion ...

Radial Nerve Palsy in Guillain-Barré Syndrome

Journal of Clinical Neuromuscular Disease, 2009
Abstract The risk of focal compression neuropathy in the setting of an underlying inflammatory polyneuropathy is unknown. A man developed ascending weakness and severe sensory ataxia and could not walk. Electromyography was diagnostic of Guillain-Barré syndrome.

Tenodesis Extension Splinting for Radial Nerve Palsy

Techniques in Hand & Upper Extremity Surgery, 2006
Injuries to the radial nerve or posterior interosseous nerve can lead to significant functional limitation. Inability to extend the wrist and/or digits prevents the hand from being positioned properly for functional tasks. Therapy after radial nerve injury is geared toward maintaining passive extension of the wrist and digits.
