Ulnar nerve palsy is a rare complication of closed midshaft forearm fractures; only 8 cases have been reported. This article describes a case of ulnar nerve palsy associated with a midshaft forearm fracture. A 12-year-old girl sustained a right midshaft forearm fracture. Whether she had a peripheral nerve injury was unknown due to strong pain. She underwent emergency manual reduction and intram...

Diaphragmatic palsy due to intraoperative injury of the phrenic nerve leads severe ventilation disorders, a decrease in quality life, leveling effect main operation. According foreign authors, reconstruction is an optimal alternative diaphragm plication acute injuries nerve. This case describes first successful experience our country with intercostal graft patient locally advanced stage IIIB th...

Facial nerve palsy induces a weakness or loss of facial expression through damage of the facial nerve. A quantitative and reliable assessment system for facial nerve palsy is required for both patients and clinicians. In this study, we propose a rapid and portable smartphone-based automatic diagnosis system that discriminates facial nerve palsy from normal subjects. Facial landmarks are localiz...

We report a case of recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy caused by coalworkers' pneumoconiosis with progressive massive fibrosis (PMF). This illustrates that PMF alone may be added to the list of lesions which can cause recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy. However, efforts should always be made to exclude more common causes, in particular bronchogenic carcinoma, before attributing the palsy to PMF.

Abstract BACKGROUND AND IMPORTANCE Third nerve palsies in the pediatric population are most commonly caused by trauma, tumors, or vascular abnormalities. Cystic oculomotor neuropathies, however, rare. We report case of a symptomatic cyst along and within nerve, which has not been described previously. CLINICAL PRESENTATION Here, we 3-yr-old girl presenting with progressive painless palsy. A mag...

BACKGROUND Conventional intraoperative nerve monitoring, predicated on intermittent stimulation, can predict recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) palsy only after the damage has been done. METHODS Fifty-two patients (52 nerves at risk) who underwent continuous intraoperative nerve monitoring (CIONM) for thyroid surgery via vagus nerve stimulation had their electromyographic (EMG) tracings recorded...

Thirty-five patients who sustained humeral shaft fractures were treated by open reduction internal fixation using AO techniques between 1992 and 1997. Open fractures occurred in 8 patients. Primary radial nerve palsy was present in 5 cases. In 16 patients an open fracture or multiple trauma, or both were indications for surgery. Eight osteosynthesis were performed after failed conservative trea...

Pseudoperipheral palsy has been used to characterize isolated monoparesis secondary to stroke. Isolated hand nerve palsy is a rare presentation for acute cerebral stroke. Our patient presented with clinical features of typical peripheral radial nerve palsy and a normal computed tomography scan of the head, which, without a detailed history and neurological examination, could have been easily mi...
