To determine the radial nerve palsy (RNP) rate and predictors of injury after humeral nonunion repair in a large multicenter sample.Consecutive retrospective cohort review.Eighteen academic orthopedic trauma centers.Three hundred seventy-nine adult patients who underwent shaft repair. Exclusion criteria were pathologic fracture complete motor RNP before surgery.Humeral assessment postoperative function.Measurements: Demographics, characteristics, preoperative function recovery.Twenty-six...
The decision to perform rotator cuff repair (RCR) versus reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) for massive tear (MCT) without arthritis can be difficult. Our aim was identify preoperative variables that are influential in a surgeon's choose one of the two procedures and evaluate outcomes. We retrospectively reviewed 181 patients older than 65 who underwent RCR or rTSA MCT arthritis. Clinical radiographic data were collected used each these patient populations assess Ninety-five...
The anatomy of the supinator nerve was evaluated in 20 fresh-frozen cadavers. Variations branching patterns, number motor branches and distance branch points from radial relative to radiocapitellar joint are described.
Multiple reconstruction techniques have been described for correction of boutonniere deformities including direct repair, central slip reconstruction, lateral band transverse retinacular ligament staged and extensor tenotomy. Each technique has reported to variable results with complications capsular contracture, loss proximal interphalangeal flexion, residual deformity. We describe a surgical using the flexor digitorum superficialis tendon through bone tunnel.
Introduction The purpose of this study was to evaluate the early outcomes thumb metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) repair using suture anchors with tape augmentation. Materials and Methods Six patients underwent UCL or reconstruction augmentation six intraosseous between January 2013 2018. main outcome measures were range motion, strength, Disabilities Arm, Shoulder, Hand (DASH) score, complications. Results At final follow-up for who had augmentation, average...
To compare the volar Henry and dorsal Thompson approaches with respect to outcomes complications for proximal third radial shaft fractures.Multicenter retrospective cohort study.Patients fractures ± associated ulna (OTA/AO 2R1 2U1) treated operatively at 11 trauma centers were included.Patient demographics injury, fracture, surgical data recorded. Final range of motion infection, neurologic compartment syndrome, malunion/nonunion compared versus approaches.The main outcome was difference in...
A giant epidermal cyst is a benign soft tissue mass commonly involving the trunk, hand and face. The authors report rare presentation of 69-year-old man who presented with painful, slow-growing left arm for 30 years duration. Examination revealed large, mobile, lateral aspect arm. MRI showed cystic mass. was excised diagnosis made based on imaging histopathology after surgical resection. measured 9.5 cm x 8 4 cm, which largest reported upper extremity.
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disorder with a wide range of systemic manifestations. Though skin, renal, joint, and hematologic involvement are often associated SLE, hepatitis not common manifestation. While clinically significant hepatopathy in SLE rare, asymptomatic hypertransaminasemia has been seen up to 60 percent patients during the course their disease generally attributed viral hepatitis, hepatotoxic drugs, or alcohol use. A diagnosis largely considered...
Spindle cell lipomas are a rare subtype of lipoma typically occurring in the shawl region middle-aged men with characteristic histological appearance consisting mature adipocytes, ropey collagen and spindle cells. Those extraordinary size or atypical anatomic location require proper immunohistological workup to rule out more ominous malignancy. The authors report presentation 54-year-old man large mass left palm causing discomfort paresthesia for 6 months. Radiographs showed radiolucent...
