BACKGROUND Dorsal sural sensory nerve action potential (SNAP) could help diagnose early or subclinical peripheral neuropathy. OBJECTIVES To establish reference data for dorsal sural SNAP amplitude, latency, and velocity in healthy participants. MATERIALS AND METHODS A prospective study was conducted in 45 nerves from healthy participants between 18 and 90 years and stratified into three age...

Objective: It is known that neuropathy, neuropathic pain and psychiatric disorders are associated with diabetes mellitus (DM). was aimed to find out whether there a relationship between nerve conduction study findings, pain, depression anxiety.
 
 Material Methods: Type 2 DM patients applied our clinical neurophysiology laboratory September 2021 January 2022 were included in this stud...

BACKGROUND Currently, no international diagnostic criteria for diabetic neuropathy (DN) have been established. Recently, a novel point-of-care sural nerve conduction device has been developed. We aimed to investigate associations between DN and clinical parameters related to the development and progression of DN by using this novel device. METHODS We conducted a retrospective observational st...

Objectives: Distal lower leg wounds, regardless of cause, and acute trauma site, are difficult. Reconstruction both situations much more challenging. Interpolation sural flap is a good alternative for this type reconstruction. Methods: Fourteen interpolation were harvested to reconstruct distal region wounds due trauma. Ten male four female patients aged from 10 59 years old included study. Res...

OBJECTIVE To assess the reliability of non-islanded distally based sural artery flap, in terms of number of flap failure (partial and major flap necrosis), number of surgeries related to the problem for which flap surgery was performed, hospital stay and return to work, for coverage of soft tissue defects of the distal one-third of leg, ankle and heel. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study. PLACE AND D...
