Nerve Conditions of the Upper Limb: How Not to Miss or Mismanage
Abstract:
There are several issues associated with nerve compression syndromes of the upper limb; ultrasonography is a useful diagnostic tool. The orthopaedic surgeon should know how to evaluate and treat patients who do not obtain expected relief following carpal or cubital tunnel release, and also be knowledgeable about the workup and evaluation of patients with conditions of debatable pathology and treatment, such as radial tunnel syndrome or pronator syndrome. Recent studies on suprascapular neuropathy include discussions about the pathophysiology and etiology of the condition, its natural history, and who might benefit from surgery.
