Posterior interosseous nerve syndrome due to intramuscular lipoma
Lipomas are extremely common benign soft tissue tumors that are usually subcutaneous and asymptomatic. However, an intramuscular lipoma, occurring adjacent to the proximal radius, may easily cause paralysis of the posterior interosseous nerve because of a specific anatomical relationship of these structures in that area. In this report, we describe an unusual case of a 48-year-old-woman with a ...
متن کاملLipoma causing a posterior interosseous nerve lesion.
A man aged sixty-two years complained of inability to extend his left index finger and thumb. This paralysis had been progressing for about twelve weeks, and had been accompanied by pain in the upper arm radiating into the forearm. On examination, there was paralysis of the extensor muscles of the left thumb and index finger. There were no sensory changes. In the extensor muscles, just distal t...
متن کاملPosterior Interosseous Nerve Syndrome Resulting from Parosteal Lipoma of the Proximal Radius: An Elusive Diagnosis Yet Excellent Outcome
A 53-year old man presented with seven months history of progressive weakness of extension of the digits and the thumb of the left hand. The wrist extension was normal and sensations were also intact. The patient had also been noticing a progressively enlarging lump on the lower anterolateral aspect of the left antecubital fossa for the last three months. Physical examination andelectro diagnos...
متن کاملPosterior 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 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...
