[Paralysis of the median nerve due to a lipofibrohamartoma in the carpal tunnel].
INTRODUCTION The lipofibrohamartoma is a rare entity of unknown origin that can affect any peripheral nerves, but mainly being found in the median nerve within the carpal tunnel. The lipofibrohamartoma is frequently associated with other conditions such as macrodactyly, the Proteus and Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndromes and multiple exostosis, among others. CLINICAL CASES Two cases of lipofibr...
full textA Rare Bilateral Variation in the Formation of Median Nerve
The median nerve is formed by fusion of lateral (C5-C7) and medial (C8, T1) cords from the brachial plexus. Bilateral variations in the formation of median nerve are very rare. One of such variations was observed during the dissection of the upper limb of approximately a 30-35-year-old man cadaver, according to Grant s method. The median nerve was formed by the union of three roots on both side...
full textCase 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...
full textMedian 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...
full textMedian nerve palsy after operative treatment of olecranon fracture.
Olecranon fracture is not an uncommon fracture in clinical practice. Simple olecranon fracture usually heals quite well without any types of iatrogenic complications. Despite close proximity of the fracture to the nerve, median nerve palsy after operative treatment of olecranon fracture is a rare complication. To the authors' knowledge, this complication has not been previously reported in the ...
