TRANSFER OF A FASCICLE FROM THE POSTERIOR CORD TO THE SUPRASCAPULAR NERVE AFTER INJURY OF THE UPPER ROOTS OF THE BRACHIAL PLEXUS: TECHNICAL CASE REPORT
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2009)
OBJECTIVE: A new nerve transfer technique using a healthy fascicle of the posterior cord for suprascapular nerve reconstruction is presented. This technique was used in a patient with posttraumatic brachial plexopathy ...
Fascicular Topography of the Suprascapular Nerve in the C5 Root and Upper Trunk of the Brachial Plexus: A Microanatomic Study From a Nerve Surgeon`s Perspective
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2010)
BACKGROUND: In patients with supraclavicular injuries of the brachial plexus, the suprascapular nerve (SSN) is frequently reconstructed with a sural nerve graft coapted to C5. As the C5 cross-sectional diameter exceeds the ...
PHRENIC NERVE TRANSFER IN THE RESTORATION OF ELBOW FLEXION IN BRACHIAL PLEXUS AVULSION INJURIES: HOW EFFECTIVE AND SAFE IS IT?
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2009)
OBJECTIVE: Phrenic nerve transfer has been used for treating lesions of the brachial plexus since 1970. Although, today, surgeons are more experienced with the technique, there are still widespread concerns about its effects ...
Hemihypoglossal-facial neurorrhaphy after mastoid dissection of the facial nerve: Results in 24 patients and comparison with the classic technique
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2008)
OBJECTIVE: Hypoglossal-facial neurorrhaphy has been widely used for reanimation of paralyzed facial muscles after irreversible proximal injury of the facial nerve. However, complete section of the hypoglossal nerve ...
Upper Brachial Plexus Injuries: Grafts vs Ulnar Fascicle Transfer to Restore Biceps Muscle Function
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINSPHILADELPHIA, 2012)
BACKGROUND: Nerve transfers or graft repairs in upper brachial plexus palsies are 2 available options for elbow flexion recovery. OBJECTIVE: To assess outcomes of biceps muscle strength when treated either by grafts or ...
RESULTS OF ULNAR NERVE NEUROTIZATION TO BICEPS BRACHII MUSCLE IN BRACHIAL PLEXUS INJURY
(ATHA COMUNICACAO & EDITORASAO PAULO SP, 2013-08-02)
Objective: To evaluate the factors influencing the results of ulnar nerve neurotization at the motor branch of the brachii biceps muscle, aiming at the restoration of elbow flexion in patients with brachial plexus injury. ...
Femoral nerve palsy secondary to iliopsoas hemorrhage in patients with hemophilia: Results from biceps femoral transfer.
(2011-11-30)
Hemophilia causes injuries of peripheral nerves secondary to compressions by hematoma. In general, these injuries recover
spontaneously after the cause of the compression is solved. A case of a 16-year-old adolescent with ...
Boundary integral formulation for the electrical response of a nerve to an extracellular stimulation
(IEEE, 2013)
We present a two-dimensional boundary integral formulation of nerve impulse propagation. A nerve impulse is a potential difference across the cellular membrane that propagates along the nerve fiber. The traveling transmembrane ...
Association of microtubules and axonal RNA transferred from myelinating Schwann cells in rat sciatic nerve
(Public Library of Science, 2020)
Transference of RNAs and ribosomes from Schwann cell-to-axon was demonstrated in normal and regenerating peripheral nerves. Previously, we have shown that RNAs transfer is dependent on F-actin cytoskeleton and Myosin Va. ...
