Shoulder posture and median nerve sliding

Case Report: Median Nerve Cavernous Hemangioma

Hemangiomas of the median nerve are extremely rare; only 12 cases have been reported in the literature. We discuss a patient who presented with paresthesia and pain along the distribution of the left median nerve secondary to a cavernoma of the proximal part of the nerve as suspected on MRI scan. Total removal of the mass was achieved with immediate relief of the symptoms and no neurologic defi...

Effects of Wrist Posture and Fingertip Force on Median Nerve Blood Flow Velocity

Purpose. The purpose of this study was to assess nerve hypervascularization using high resolution ultrasonography to determine the effects of wrist posture and fingertip force on median nerve blood flow at the wrist in healthy participants and those experiencing carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) symptoms. Methods. The median nerves of nine healthy participants and nine participants experiencing symp...

Comparison of Shoulder Muscles Activation for Shoulder Abduction between Forward Shoulder Posture and Asymptomatic Persons

[Purpose] This study investigated the differences in shoulder muscles activities during shoulder abduction between a forward shoulder posture group and asymptomatic group. [Subjects] Seven males with forward shoulder posture (FHS) and seven asymptomatic males were recruited. [Methods] We measured the upper and middle trapezius (UT and MT), serratus anterior (SA), and clavicle portion of the pec...

Median Nerve Stimulation

brain injury due to cerebrovascular disorder, whos lives can be saved, has increased. Along with this phenomenon, however, the number of patients with persistent vegetative state has been increasing, and thus constitutes an important issue. No effective treatment method for persistent vegetative state has been established but some reports have recently shown that spinal epidural stimulation and...
