Posterior interosseous nerve palsy caused by lipoma: A case report.
Lipomas are benign soft tissue neoplasms that occur commonly in subcutaneous tissue. In rare instances they can occur in deeper planes. When occurring in the proximal forearm they can compress the posterior interosseous branch of the radial nerve resulting in an insidious onset of weakness of digital extensor muscles. A case of posterior interosseous nerve palsy from lipoma in a 58-year-old man...
متن کاملNon-traumatic paralysis of the posterior interosseous nerve.
We treated 31 patients with non-traumatic paralysis of the posterior interosseous nerve over 15 years. There were 10 men and 21 women of mean age 40.3 years (17 to 71). Six were managed conservatively, and 25 by operation. In 14 patients entrapment occurred at the supinator, including three who had double compression at both the entrance and exit from the muscle. In four it was caused by a gang...
متن کاملNon-traumatic progressive paralysis of the posterior interosseous nerve.
Isolated lesions of the posterior interosseous nerve of the forearm are uncommon. Most follow injury to the elbow region The clinical features of a long-standing lesion of the nerve are wasting of the posterior forearm muscles (excepting brachio-radialis and extensor carpi radialis longus), diminution or loss of active extension of the fingers at the metacarpo-phalangeal joints, and weakness or...
متن کاملCase Report: POSTERIOR INTEROSSEOUS NERVE COMPRESSION SYNDROME
Radial nerve compression or injury can occur at any point along the course of the nerve within the upper extremity. Entrapment of the radial nerve or its branches is most common within the proximal forearm and at the elbow. Variations in anatomic structures at this level are an important cause of radial nerve entrapment syndromes. Compression of the radial nerve and its branches at the elbow ca...
متن کاملPosterior Interosseous Nerve Palsy Caused by Parosteal Lipoma: A Case Report
An 83-year-old woman presented with weakness in her right-hand and wrist extensors and swelling in the proximal part of the right forearm. Electromyography (EMG) confirmed involvement of posterior interosseous nerve at the level of proximal forearm. MR imaging demonstrated the characteristics of lipoma which extended on the anterolateral aspect of the right forearm and at the level of the radiu...
