Myofibroma in the Palm Presenting with Median Nerve Compression Symptoms
SUMMARY A myofibroma is a benign proliferation of myofibroblasts in the connective tissue. Solitary myofibromas are a rare finding especially in an adult. We report a case of a 23-year-old man presenting with an enlarging mass over his right palm. The patient is an active weight lifter. He reported numbness and tingling in the median nerve distribution. Nerve conduction studies and magnetic res...
متن کاملMotor amplitude of median nerve with stimulation in the palm a reliable indicator for axonal loss in carpal tunnel syndrome
Background and Aim: The present study aimed to use the median nerve compound muscle action potential (CMAP) amplitude by stimulation at the palm instead of abductor pollicis brevis (APB) needle electromyography (EMG) for determining a sign of axonal loss in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). Methods and Materials/Patients: This study was performed on 180 patients with CTS referred to ...

portant that the physiotherapist should supervise the movements and make sure that the metacarpal is again moved through a full active range at the new joint. This treatment is continued until the patient can return to light work, which is usually a matter of four to six weeks. Some patients complain of pain for longer than this, but others are surprisingly pain free; one started milking cows w...
متن کاملAn unusual case of median nerve compression with ipsilateral supracondylar process
Abstract The supracondylar process is a beak-like bony projection that arises from the anteromedial surface of the humerus. The process has rarely been associated with compression of the median nerve and seldom requires treatment. We report a case of a supracondylar process that caused tenting of the median nerve with elbow extension and pronation.
متن کاملMedian nerve compression by Struthers ligament.
A 61-year-old patient presented with progressive weakness, pain and numbness in the left arm and hand. On examination the abnormalities were confined to the distribution of the median nerve, and electrophysiological testing localised the lesion to the segment just proximal to the elbow. At surgery Struthers ligament was found compressing the median nerve. No bony spur was found by palpation or ...
