Complete brachial plexus palsy following shoulder dislocation due to sneeze: a case report.

Background: Traumatic shoulder dislocation is a frequent condition presenting to the emergency department. Due to the anatomy of the shoulder, associated neurovascular damage is not uncommon. Although clinical intuition may suggest that a higher-energy mechanism is required to produce neurovascular sequelae, the existing literature does not support this supposition.

Peripheral Neuropathy Due to Recreational Use of Nitrous Oxide Presenting After an Ankle Sprain With Foot Drop.

A 22-year-old man was referred for orthopedic follow-up after an ankle injury. Initial evaluation in urgent care included radiographs with negative findings. After a delayed presentation, a course of functional treatment was recommended.

The resolution of neuropathic hyperalgesia following motor and sensory functional recovery in sciatic axonotmetic mononeuropathies.

Nerve lesions producing extensive axonal loss can induce painful hyperalgesic states in man. The affect of axonal regeneration and end-organ reinnervation on hyperalgesia and pain is controversial. This study used two axonotmetic models, the sciatic crush injury (CI) and the sciatic chronic constrictive injury (CCI), to investigate the affects of nerve regeneration and reinnervation on hyperalgesia and presumed painful behavior in rats.
