The radial and posterior interosseous nerves

The radial and posterior interosseous nerves. Results fo 260 repairs.

The outcome of 260 repairs of the radial and posterior interosseous nerves, graded by Seddon's modification of the Medical Research Council Special Committee's system, was analysed according to four patterns of injury; open 'tidy', open 'untidy', closed traction, and those associated with injury to the axillary or brachial artery. We studied the effect on the outcome of delay in effecting repai...

Vulnerability of the posterior interosseous nerve during radial head resection.

Radial head fracture associated with posterior interosseous nerve injury☆

Fractures of the radial head and radial neck correspond to 1.7-5.4% of all fractures and approximately 30% may present associated injuries. In the literature, there are few reports of radial head fracture with posterior interosseous nerve injury. This study aimed to report a case of radial head fracture associated with posterior interosseous nerve injury. CASE REPORT A male patient, aged 42 y...

Posterior interosseous neuropathy

OBJECTIVE To investigate the spatial pattern of lesion dispersion in posterior interosseous neuropathy syndrome (PINS) by high-resolution magnetic resonance neurography. METHODS This prospective study was approved by the local ethics committee and written informed consent was obtained from all patients. In 19 patients with PINS and 20 healthy controls, a standardized magnetic resonance neurog...
