Sensitivity and specificity of the sensory collapse test for nerve entrapment syndrome in the upper extremity.

Objectives: Several prospective blinded studies have found poorer sensitivity for the sensory collapse test than reported by Susan E Mackinnon's team. However, the blinded examiner had no knowledge of the patient's clinical presentation, or even of the purpose of the test. In these conditions, it seems difficult to perform the sensory collapse test correctly.

Free Fibula Flap in Traumatic Femoral Bone Reconstruction: A 10-year Review.

Introduction: The loss of femoral bone substance represents a major therapeutic issue. When the loss of bone substance is extensive, or the local condition is unfavourable, there are few satisfactory solutions. In this study, we share our experience of large femoral bone reconstruction by free fibula flap.

Radiocarpal fracture-dislocation: Review of the literature, new classification and decision algorithm.

Background: Radiocarpal fractures and dislocations are rarely described in the literature. However, the consequences at the functional level are severe, with the loss of almost half of the articular amplitude. The most widespread classification is that of Dumontier, which divides the injury into two categories according to the presence or absence of a fracture.

What is the place of wrist arthroscopy in surgical residents' training? Wrist Arthroscopy in Residents Survey (WARS).

Introduction: Wrist arthroscopy has become an essential method in the management of patients suffering from wrist pathologies. This technique must be mastered by residents wishing to specialize in upper limb surgery. However, no study has evaluated residents' access to wrist arthroscopy.

A jersey finger diagnostic trap: Rupture of the flexor digitorum profundus tendon and the flexor digitorum superficialis tendon.

Management of a 30-year-old man with a rarely described form of jersey finger: simultaneous rupture of the flexor digitorum profundus and flexor digitorum superficialis on the middle finger. Excision of the superficial tendon and anchoring of the flexor digitorum profundus tendon was performed. After 6 months of follow-up, the patient did not present any complaint and reported a complete return to his daily activities.
