Median Nerve Palsy after Shoulder Dislocation in a 10-year-old Girl: A Case Report.

Introduction: Traumatic glenohumeral dislocation is very rare in skeletally immature patients, and there are no reports in the literature describing the risk of associated nerve injuries. In the general population, the most commonly affected nerve is the axillary, but anatomical variations with a common origin between the musculocutaneous and median nerves exist that alter the respective positions and courses of these nerves and can make them more prone to injury during a glenohumeral dislocation.

Case Report: A 10-year-old girl presented with incomplete median nerve palsy without any recuperation 8 months after an anterior glenohumeral dislocation.

Intraosseous Nontraumatic Median Nerve Entrapment at the Elbow: A Case Report.

Intraosseous median nerve entrapment at the level of the elbow can occur after a traumatic event such as fracture and/or dislocation of the elbow. It is considered a rare and severe entity. We present a rare case of nontraumatic median nerve entrapment inside the distal humerus.

Phalangeal sarcoidosis - A rare case report.

We report a case of a 57-year-old woman who presented a rapidly progressing swelling at the base of her right 4th finger, with imaging revealing non-specific lesions suggestive of a malignant tumoral process. Following imaging, resection-biopsy revealed a non-caseating granulomatous inflammatory infiltrate suggesting sarcoidosis. Digital sarcoidosis is an uncommon presentation of the disease, especially in the early stages and without systemic symptoms.

Spontaneous improvement of bilateral clinodactyly of the little finger with trapezoidal phalanx: a case report with a 15-year follow-up.

Clinodactyly can be produced by a longitudinal epiphyseal bracket that generates either a 'delta' or 'trapezoidal' phalanx. We present a case with a 15-year follow-up of bilateral clinodactyly of the little finger, to emphasize a 'wait-and-see' approach as self-remodelling of his phalanges occurred during growth.

Idiopathic constrictive neuropathy of common palmar digital nerve: A case report.

Neuropathy of the digital nerves of the hand are very uncommon. Few studies dealt with spontaneous atraumatic digital nerve palsy. Repetitive micro-traumatisms and anatomical variants were implicated in nerve compression.

Association of Acute Trapeziometacarpal Joint Dislocation and Trapezium Fracture in a 14-Year-Old Boy: A Case Report.

Fracture-dislocation of the trapeziometacarpal (TM) joint in adolescent patients is a rare injury, with only 3 cases reported in literature to our knowledge. Its low incidence, together with the complexity of the anatomy and biomechanics of TM joint, may represent a challenge for surgeons in choosing the best treating option. Here, we report a case of a TM fracture dislocation in a 14-year-old boy treated with percutaneous Kirschner wire pinning.

Intramedullary nailing for treatment of forearm non-union: Is it useful? - A case series.

Introduction: Intramedullary osteosynthesis is often considered a second-order method for treatment of forearm non-union.

Methods: We evaluated clinical and functional results from 49 patients affected by radio and/or ulna non-union treated using intramedullary nailing, with possible tricortical autologous bone grafting. Healing rate (primary outcome), healing time and functional status have been assessed.
