Decompression of the ulnar and median nerves in leprous neuritis.
Muir ( 1 948 ) was of the opinion that a painful swelling of nerves following progressive paralysis was suitable for decompression . 'Splitting of the nerve sheath will give relief and conserve function in the most severe cases . ' Cochrane ( 1 964 ) pointed out that the operation on all nerves should be replaced by a much more cautious approach ; however, if a nerve abscess is suspected the ne...
متن کاملNormal Values of Median, Ulnar and Radial Nerves Conduction in Healthy Adults (20-59 years)

متن کاملReliability of Upper Limb Neurodynamic Tests: Median, Radial and Ulnar Nerves
Objective: in the evaluation of peripheral nerves, upper limb neurodynamic tests are used to assess the mechanical sensitivity of the nerve. However, very little is known about the reliability of upper limb neurodynamic tests, especially for the radial and ulnar nerves. The aim of this study was to evaluate the reliability of neurodynamic tests of the upper extremities including median, radial ...
متن کاملMedian and Ulnar Nerves Traumatic Injuries Rehabilitation
Peripheral nerves are structures that suffer injuries similar to those seen in other tissues, resulting in important motor and sensory disabilities. It is estimated that the incidence of traumatic lesions is as high as 500.000 cases per year in some countries, where 2,8% of the patients become permanently disabled due to prolonged nerve regeneration time (Noble et al., 1998; Rodrígues et al., 2...
متن کاملRepair of median and ulnar nerves. Primary suture is best.
We reviewed, at two to seven years, the results of repair of 108 median and ulnar nerves after clean transection injury between the elbow and wrist in 95 patients ranging in age from 15 to 55 years. Of these, 48 nerves had primary suture, 25 had delayed suture, and 35 were grafted, all repairs being performed by the senior author using standard techniques. Assessment was based on the methods an...
