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.

Split tendon transfer of the posterior tibialis for spastic equinovarus foot deformity: Does tendon routing impact post-operative ankle kinematics?

Department of Orthopaedics, BC Children's Hospital, 4500 Oak St, Vancouver, BC V6H 3N1, Canada; The Motion Lab, Sunny Hill Health Centre, 4480 Oak St, Vancouver, BC V6H 3N1, Canada; University of British Columbia, Faculty of Medicine, Department of Orthopaedics, 317 - 2194 Health Sciences Mall, Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z3, Canada.

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.

Distal radius fracture nonunion can result in significant deformity, loss of function, and chronic pain. Presented here is a case of distal radius nonunion that was surgically reconstructed with a pedicled distal ulna bone graft based on the periosteal branches of the posterior interosseus artery (PIA). This technique has limited prior utilization for adult distal radius nonunion treatment but offers an effective option for surgical reconstruction of distal radius nonunion with preservation of the radiocarpal joint, utilizing a less invasive surgery that also reduces hospitalization stay.
