Oberlin partial ulnar nerve transfer for restoration in obstetric brachial plexus palsy of a newborn: case report [PDF]

, 2006
An 8 month old male infant with Erb's birth palsy was treated with two peripheral nerve transfers. Except for rapid motor reinnervations, elbow flexion was obtained by an Oberlin's partial ulnar nerve transfer, while shoulder abduction was restored by an

Functional outcome of spinal accessory nerve transfer to the suprascapular nerve to restore shoulder function: Results in upper and complete traumatic brachial plexus palsy in adults

Neurology India, 2019
Background: Shoulder stability, abduction and external rotation are vital for the performance of usual daily tasks. Aims: To compare the functional outcomes in the shoulder following spinal accessory to suprascapular nerve transfer (SASNT).

‘SOMS BrainSpace’: A digital serious game for undergraduate neuroscience

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuroanatomy is challenging for many undergraduates, requiring strong visuospatial skills and a deep understanding of complex concepts. This study developed and evaluated SOMS BrainSpace, a digital serious game for neuroanatomy education, using a mixed methods approach.

Advancing glenohumeral dysplasia treatment in brachial plexus birth injury: the end-to-side spinal accessory to suprascapular nerve transfer technique

Child's Nervous System
Brachial plexus birth injury (BPBI) is a common injury with the spectrum of disease prognosis ranging from spontaneous recovery to lifelong debilitating disability. A common sequela of BPBI is glenohumeral dysplasia (GHD) which, if not addressed early on,

Production of 3D printed biomodels of the canine brain for veterinary neuroanatomy teaching

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Teaching neuroanatomy presents multiple challenges to both students and teachers, as it is a subject with highly dense content that commonly causes the development of aversion by students, a phenomenon referred to as “neurophobia,” which has been documented in human and veterinary medicine students.

Surgical Reconstruction for Upper-Extremity Paralysis Following Acute Flaccid Myelitis

JBJS Open Access, 2019
Background:. Acute flaccid myelitis (AFM) is a debilitating illness that is defined by the sudden onset of flaccid paralysis in the extremities with spinal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrating a longitudinal lesion confined to the gray matter ...

Autologous Palmaris Longus Tendon Augmentation for Large to Massive Rotator Cuff Tears

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract This technical note describes an arthroscopic technique that utilizes the autologous palmaris longus (PL) tendon to augment large to massive rotator cuff tears when complete repair is not feasible. The PL tendon is harvested through a minimal wrist incision and delivered intramuscularly into the supraspinatus and/or infraspinatus using a ...

Noninvasive vagus nerve stimulation alters neural response and physiological autonomic tone to noxious thermal challenge. [PDF]

, 2019
The mechanisms by which noninvasive vagal nerve stimulation (nVNS) affect central and peripheral neural circuits that subserve pain and autonomic physiology are not clear, and thus remain an area of intense investigation.

Arthroscopic Dissection and Protection of an Aberrant Suprascapular Nerve During Massive Rotator Cuff Repair

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract The video demonstrates an arthroscopic technique for identification, dissection, and protection of the suprascapular nerve (SSN) during massive rotator cuff repair. The SSN, closely related to the transverse scapular ligament (TSL), may present anatomical variations that heighten the risk of iatrogenic injury.
