Peripheral nerve injuries of the lower extremity (LE) are frequently encountered in orthopaedic practice. They can be traumatic or iatrogenic. Proper and timely diagnosis and treatment are the keys to optimizing outcomes. This paper reviews and discusses the basic anatomy and physiology of nerve injury and the current literature on the incidence, pathogenesis, diagnosis, management and outcomes...

Background Data: Peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs) by either gunshot missiles or shrapnel from barrel bomb explosions are common during war.

Brachial plexus and peripheral nerve injuries lead to significant upper extremity dysfunction and disability. Traditionally, both have been treated with nerve grafting when a tensionless, end-to-end repair is not feasible. Despite our best efforts, functional outcomes of this procedure are less than ideal due to the long distances that the axons must regenerate to reach their end organs. Over t...

Background. Lower extremity nerve injuries caused by wounds are often not noticed immediately after trauma. The purpose of this article was to analyze the localization of penetrating injuries to the nerves, the mechanism and extent of the lesions, and the microsurgical techniques used. The diagnostic and therapeutic basics in penetrating injuries of lower extremity nerves are also described. Ma...

Peripheral nerve injuries during sports-related operative interventions are rare complications, but the associated morbidity can be substantial. Early diagnosis, efficient and effective evaluation, and appropriate management are crucial to maximizing the prognosis, and a clear and structured algorithm is therefore required. We describe the surgical conditions and interventions that are commonly...

<p>T type intercondylar fractures of the distal hummers in pediatric age group is an extremely rare injury. These are difficult to diagnosed as they can be mistaken for extension injuries. The few clinal trials on management fracture, it widely regarded that accepted method treatment open reduction and rigid internal fixation. It easier ensure stable articular reconstruction intra fragmen...

An acute knee dislocation is an uncommon injury, with a high rate of associated vascular and neurologic injuries as well as potentially limb-threatening complications. High-energy trauma is the most common cause of an acute knee dislocation, although lower-energy injuries, such as those sustained during athletic competition, are increasing in incidence. Injuries to the popliteal artery and comm...

non‑recurrent laryngeal nerve (nrln) is a rare anomaly which is reported in 0.3%‑0.8% of people on the right side and in 0.004% (extremely rare) on the left side. damage to this nerve during the surgical procedure may lead to severe iatrogenic morbidity and should therefore be prevented from being damaged. the best way to avoid this damage to the nerve is to identify the nerve with a systematic...
