Iatrogenic Ulnar Nerve Injury post Laceration Suturing - An Unusual Presentation
INTRODUCTION Nerve entrapment while suturing a lacerated wound is a complication that is easily avoidable. We report a case low ulnar nerve palsy due to nerve entrapment while suturing a lacerated wound. CASE REPORT A 48 year old lady came with complaints of pain and a lacerated wound over the dorsomedial aspect of lower third of the left forearm. The lacerated wound was sutured elsewhere one...
متن کاملAbstract: Nerve Transfer Versus Interpositional Nerve Graft Reconstruction for Post-traumatic, Isolated Axillary Nerve Injuries: A Systematic Review
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A systematic review was performed using the PubMED, SCOPUS, and Cochrane databases in order to identify all cases of isolated, posttraumatic axillary nerve injuries in patients 18 years or older. Patients who underwent axillary nerve reconstruction were included and categorized by technique: graft or transfer. Demographics were recorded, including age, time to operation, ...
متن کاملDistal anterior interosseous nerve transfer to the deep ulnar nerve and end-to-side suture of the superficial ulnar nerve to the third common palmar digital nerve for treatment of high ulnar nerve injuries: experience in five cases.
OBJECTIVE To demonstrate the results of a double nerve transfer at the level of the hand for recovery of the motor and sensory function of the hand in cases of high ulnar nerve injuries. METHOD Five patients underwent a transfer of the distal branch of the anterior interosseous nerve to the deep ulnar nerve, and an end-to-side suture of the superficial ulnar nerve to the third common palmar d...
متن کاملTransfer of Sensory Branches of Radial Nerve in Hand Surgery
One of the main principles in hand surgery is the restitution of sensation in fingers which seems hard or impossible in extensive hand traumas especially in war injuries. In this article transfer of sensory branch of radial nerve to sensory branch of median (in 25 cases) and to sensory branch of ulnar nerve (for the first time in literature and in 12 cases) is reported. Operative technics and r...
متن کاملTissue-engineered rhesus monkey nerve grafts for the repair of long ulnar nerve defects: similar outcomes to autologous nerve grafts
Acellular nerve allografts can help preserve normal nerve structure and extracellular matrix composition. These allografts have low immunogenicity and are more readily available than autologous nerves for the repair of long-segment peripheral nerve defects. In this study, we repaired a 40-mm ulnar nerve defect in rhesus monkeys with tissue-engineered peripheral nerve, and compared the outcome w...
