Isolated triceps weakness in exercise-induced radial neuropathy.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE We report a case of isolated triceps weakness resulting from radial neuropathy. METHODS A middle-aged healthy man, a keen athlete, developed acute weakness of the triceps brachii muscle due to radial neuropathy. No other radial nerve innervated muscles were involved. Triceps function

Wrist drop and muscle weakness of the fingers induced by an upper cervical spine anomaly.

OBJECTIVE This report presents a case of wrist drop and muscle weakness of the fingers as a false localizing sign induced by stenosis of the upper cervical spine caused by a bony anomaly. METHODS A 77-year-old male complained of severe muscle weakness of the right hand. Cervical spine MRI showed a

Apparent weakness of ulnar-innervated muscles in radial palsy.

Only registered users can translate articles

Muscle strength was assessed in 11 patients with radial or posterior interosseus palsy. Apparent weakness was found in the dorsal and palmar interossei and the abductor digiti minimi. These muscles insert on the extensor expansions, and their activation is associated with concomitant contraction of

[Radial nerve palsy as a presenting feature of neuralgic amyotrophy].

Isolated Wrist Drop Presenting as Acute Stroke: Rare Case Report with Review of Literature.

Only registered users can translate articles

Isolated wrist drop is very unusual clinical presentation due to cerebral stroke. It is highly confused with peripheral neuropathy. However, timely detection of acute stroke as one of the causes of wrist drop is necessary as it changes the line of treatment and prognosis significantly. Here we are

Electrophysiologic Features of Radial Neuropathy in Childhood and Adolescence.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND We analyzed the clinical and electrophysiologic patterns of nerve injury in pediatric patients with radial neuropathy. METHODS This is a retrospective analysis of 19 children and adolescents with radial neuropathy. RESULTS The mean subject age was 12 years (range one month to 19 years),

Radial nerve palsy in Guillain-Barré syndrome.

Only registered users can translate articles

The risk of focal compression neuropathy in the setting of an underlying inflammatory polyneuropathy is unknown. A man developed ascending weakness and severe sensory ataxia and could not walk. Electromyography was diagnostic of Guillain-Barré syndrome. He improved with gammaglobulin and was

Fractional arm weakness as presentation of stroke due to posterior borderzone infarct: A report of two cases.

Only registered users can translate articles

A 41-year-old male presented with acute onset weakness of the left hand. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain showed hyperacute infarct in the right middle cerebral artery (MCA)-posterior cerebral artery (PCA) watershed territory. Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), Doppler

Radial nerve palsy in the newborn: a case series.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Peripheral nerve palsies of the upper extremities presenting at birth can be distressing for families and care providers. It is therefore important to be able to identify patients whose diagnosis is compatible with full recovery so that their families can be reassured. METHODS We

Radial nerve entrapment at the elbow: surgical anatomy.

Only registered users can translate articles

The surgical anatomy of interest in the posterior interosseous nerve syndrome was studied to shed light on the ramifying pattern of the radial nerve, the number of its muscular branches and their branching levels, and to pinpoint the location of the fibrous bands that may cause radial nerve

Radial nerve compression by a large cephalic vein aneurysm: case report.

Only registered users can translate articles

A 43-year-old man had weakness of the extensor muscles in the right forearm and could not extend the right wrist. The apparent disorder was caused by radial nerve compression by a large aneurysm in the cephalic vein in the antecubital fossa. Surgical resection of the aneurysm resolved the symptoms.

Radial nerve compression.

Only registered users can translate articles

Symptomatic radial nerve compression is relatively uncommon. A relatively high incidence of compressive neuropathy involves other major nerves in the same extremity. Because sensory complaints are minor, radial nerve compression may successfully masquerade as tendonitis or tendon rupture. The most

Irreparable Radial Nerve Palsy Due to Delayed Diagnostic Management of a Giant Lipoma at the Proximal Forearm Resulting in a Triple Tendon Transfer Procedure: Case report and Brief Review of Literature.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Non-traumatic radial nerve palsy (RNP) caused by local tumors is a rare and uncommon entity. METHODS A 62-year-old female presented with a left non-traumatic RNP, initially starting with weakness only. It was caused by a benign giant lipoma at the proximal forearm that was misdiagnosed
