background a gunshot wound to the lower extremity with combined skeletal and vascular injuries can be difficult to manage. in clinical practice, it is not always possible to assemble a multispecialty team to work seamlessly to attain this goal, and the end result may be unnecessary prolonged ischemic time. a covered endovascular stent (evs) can be used initially to restore perfusion without nee...

Abstract Introduction: In this study the role of PGE2 as an important inflammatory mediator in Indomethacine and Theophylline effects on joint diameter and vascular response of chronically inflamed rat knee joint to saphenous nerve stimulation was investigated. Methods: Inflammation was induced by intraarticular injection of 0.2 ml Freund,s Complete Adjuvant (FCA) and 3, 7, 14, 21 days post i...

The rapid development of innovative medical technologies, the expansion indications for surgical treatment, a significant increase in number operations performed varicose veins entails steady frequency iatrogenic damage to vascular-nerve bundle and lymphatic collectors lower limb. This can lead severe complications requiring surgery, social economic consequences associated with need forlong-ter...

Though uncommon, femoral nerve palsies are potentially devastating injuries which can occur as a result of penetrating trauma or malignancies, however the most common cause is inadvertent iatrogenic injury following intra abdominal surgery such as gynaecological/vascular surgery or total hip replacement [1]. We present a case of iatrogenic femoral nerve injury with a delayed presentation result...

BACKGROUND The etiology of diaphragm paralysis is often elusive unless an iatrogenic or traumatic injury to the phrenic nerve can be clearly implicated. Until recently, there has been little interest in the pathophysiology of diaphragm paralysis since few treatment options existed. METHODS We present three cases of symptomatic diaphragm paralysis in which a clear clinico-pathologic diagnosis ...

background: few reports represent palmar cutaneous nerve neuropathy in the wrist due to a ganglion cyst. case presentation: a 25-year-old female was presented with a mass at volar side of the wrist and hypoesthesia at the base of thenar eminence. at ulrasonographic examination, a simple cyst was detected. sensory response of palmar cutaneous branch of median nerve was absent at the affected sid...

Purpose: The current study aimed to report the perioperative complications of modified Stoppa approach for treatment pelvic bone fractures. Methods: We analyzed 48 consecutive operations in 45 patients who were treated with internal fixation using between March 2016 and July 2018. This included three revision operations. mean age was 54.5 years, 35 male 10 female patients. All fractures occurre...

Abstract Background This case report documents a rare variation of persistent median artery. Normally transient vessel present during embryologic development the limbs, artery typically regresses by eighth week life as radial and ulnar arteries predominate distal vascular supply hand. In subset adult population, this remains which most often ends in carpal tunnel or hand without significant dep...

Genicular nerve radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has recently gained popularity as an intervention for chronic knee pain in patients who have failed other conservative or surgical treatments. Long-term efficacy and adverse events are still largely unknown. Under fluoroscopic guidance, thermal RFA targets the lateral superior, medial superior, and medial inferior genicular nerves, which run in clos...
