There are many approaches to the wrist both volar and dorsal, depending on the injury at hand. The design of the volar locking plate has created a rise in distal radius fractures being treated using a volar FCR approach and its modifications. It does, however, have limitations in visualization of the volar ulnar corner of the radius. In this paper, we will revisit the flexor carpi ulnaris approach and pose some considerations for its historical context, safety, efficacy, and surgical technique.

Background: Quantitative evidence of levodopa-induced beneficial effects on parkinsonian rigidity in Parkinson's disease (PD) is lacking. Recent research has demonstrated the velocity-dependent nature of objective rigidity in PD and revealed its neural underpinning.
Objective: The present study aimed to examine the effect of levodopa on objective rigidity in PD.
Preserved Finger Flexion in Brachial Plexus Total Lesion: A Study of 16 Cases Among 989 Surgical Patients.

Department of Neurosurgery, Nossa Senhora da Conceição Hospital, Tubarão, Brazil.
Purpose: Brachial plexus traction injuries have conventionally been categorized as involving the C5-C6, C5-C7, C5-T1, and C8-T1 roots. In this article, we report a distinct clinical presentation of brachial plexus injury characterized by intact finger flexion with signs of complete brachial plexus injury.
Methods: From 2010 to 2022, 989 patients who sustained brachial plexus injuries were examined and underwent surgery.
Combined nerve and tendon transfer strategy for the restoration of grasp in tetraplegia; a case report.

Introduction: By combining nerve and tendon transfer procedures, a more versatile hand function can be expected. Here we report the long-term outcomes of novel, individualized reconstruction strategies using combined nerve and tendon transfer procedures (CNaTT) to restore prehension and grasp in two patients with tetraplegia.
Case Presentation: Two women, 45 years of age, underwent bilateral nerve transfer according to the Bertelli S-PIN (supinator to posterior interosseous nerve transfer) procedure.
Tendinopathies around the hand and wrist are common. Most are diagnosed easily with a thorough history and clinical examination. Common conditions involving the hand and wrist include trigger finger, de Quervain tenosynovitis, intersection syndrome, third and fourth extensor compartment tenosynovitis, extensor carpi ulnaris tendinitis, and flexor carpi radialis tendinitis.
