Introduction: Many non-surgical methods were performed to repair the deformities in the skeletal system to avoid severe complications post-open surgery, especially within the childhood stage or below. We aim, in this case, to present a new technique for repairing bony deformities in the childhood stage, which fewer studies have to instigate its efficacy versus open surgery.
Case Presentation: We present a 14-months-old infant with wrist extravasation injury at the neonatal stage (day 1), end with a right wrist volar contraction and complete loss of brain homunculus of the right hand.
Discussion: We used a reverse posterior interosseous flap to reconstruct the soft tissue and release the flexor tendons of the hand. The flap was conducted entirely and was rapidly adapted to the recipient beds to achieve good color and texture harmonies. Within following up for 12 weeks, the patient restored hand function.
Conclusion: More global cohort studies are required to compare precisely the efficacy between surgical options and the used technique in our case for salvaging deformities in childhood.

Beyond One-Size-Fits-All: Pioneering a Zone-Based Strategy in Digital Nerve Autografting.
Ann Plast Surg
January 2025
Background: Digital nerve injuries significantly affect hand function and quality of life, necessitating effective reconstruction strategies. Autologous nerve grafting remains the gold standard due to its superior biocompatibility, despite recent advancements in nerve conduits and allogenic grafts. This study aims to propose a novel zone-based strategy for donor nerve selection to improve outcomes in digital nerve reconstruction.

Radial nerve compression at the arcade of Frohse is a rare but significant condition that typically presents with pain primarily after exertion and at night on the dorsal side of the forearm, more distally than tennis elbow pain, and weakness of the wrist extensors and the long fingers and thumb extensors. Traditional treatment often involves open surgery, resulting in significant scarring. This study introduces a novel percutaneous radial nerve release technique under complete ultrasound guidance and highlights its efficacy and safety.

Background: Split tendon transfer of the posterior tibialis (SPOTT) is a surgical procedure in which the split posterior tibialis tendon is transferred posterior to the fibula (PO) with insertion on the peroneus brevis tendon to rebalance the forces across the hindfoot. Routing of the split tendon through the interosseous membrane (IO) is a variation with the potential benefit of augmenting ankle dorsiflexion in swing.
Research Question: Does IO routing improve ankle dorsiflexion in swing and/or varus in stance compared to PO routing?
Methods: A retrospective chart review was completed to identify forty-two patients who underwent a SPOTT procedure for equinovarus foot deformity.

Cases: Two patients with spontaneous loss of thumb interphalangeal joint extension were referred after history, electrodiagnostic, and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings were felt to demonstrate a posterior interosseous nerve (PIN) palsy. Subsequent physical examination and additional directed studies suggested an alternative explanation: rupture of the extensor pollicis longus (EPL) tendon, subsequently confirmed at surgery. An extensor indicis proprius to EPL transfer restored thumb function.
