Phrenic nerve transfer to the musculocutaneous nerve for the repair of brachial plexus injury: electrophysiological characteristics
Phrenic nerve transfer is a major dynamic treatment used to repair brachial plexus root avulsion. We analyzed 72 relevant articles on phrenic nerve transfer to repair injured brachial plexus that were indexed by Science Citation Index. The keywords searched were brachial plexus injury, phrenic nerve, repair, surgery, protection, nerve transfer, and nerve graft. In addition, we performed neuroph...
متن کاملNerve Transfer for Elbow Extension in Obstetrical Brachial Plexus Palsy.
Dear Editor, The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the option of triceps muscle restoration by means of selective neurotisation of the radial nerve in children suffering from obstetrical brachial plexus palsy (OBPP) during their early years of life. Early nerve surgery, which includes both brachial plexus reconstruction and nerve transfers, is generally accepted as the best option for treatin...
متن کاملAssociated factors in 1611 cases of brachial plexus injury.

METHODS A computerized data set containing records from hospital discharge summaries of mothers and infants and birth certificates was examined. The deliveries took place in more than 300 civilian acute care hospitals in California between January 1, 1994, and December 31, 1995. Cases of brachial ...
متن کاملApplication of nerve transfer for shoulder reanimation in brachial plexus injury
Background: The present study was aimed to evaluate the functional outcome and practical effectiveness of spinal accessory to suprascapular nerve transfer (XI-SSN) performed for restoration of shoulder reanimation. Methods: This was a prospective study conducted on 10 consecutive cases of brachial plexus injury during December 2010 to October 2011.The patients aged 16 to 47 years old (mean age ...
متن کاملJournal of Brachial Plexus and Peripheral Nerve Injury
Background: Root avulsion of the brachial plexus causes an oxidative stress reaction in the spinal cord and induces dramatic spinal motoneuron death, while EGb761 is a natural free radical cleaning agent. This study was designed to investigate the protective effects of intraperitoneally injected EGb761 against neural damage following brachial root
