Free palmaris longus graft tenodesis effectively treats swan neck adduction collapse secondary to thumb basilar joint arthritis.

Background: Compensatory thumb metacarpophalangeal joint hyperextension may occur with basilar joint arthritis and subluxation. Instability at the metacarpophalangeal joint must be corrected when the basilar joint is operated on. The authors use a simple surgical procedure that provides correction of thumb metacarpophalangeal joint hyperextension by a free palmaris longus graft to provide volar tenodesis across the metacarpophalangeal joint.

Intraneural lipoma of the ulnar nerve: A case report and review of literature.

Intraneural lipomas of the peripheral nerve or its cutaneous branches are rare benign tumours. These slow-growing tumours present as asymptomatic swelling, and diagnosis is usually made at the time of exploration. In most cases, these tumours can be enucleated without damage to the nerve fibres.
