Clinical features depend on the site of injury, but may include weakness or paralysis of wrist flexion, finger flexion, and ulnar innervated intrinsic hand muscles , and impaired sensation over the ulnar aspect of the hand, fifth finger, and ulnar half of the ring finger.

Extractions: Carpel Tunnel Syndrome Painful, burning numbness in the palm of the hand is a common symptom of carpel tunnel syndrome. The median nerve, which serves sensation in the palm of the hand, and movement of small muscles in the hand, is compressed at the wrist. The nerve is pinched between underlying ligaments and bones of the wrist and an overlying, tough ligament, the transverse carpel ligament. Patients complain of tingling in the palm, and sometimes aching and burning. Characteristically the numbness awakes the patient at night, or is present with repetitive use of the hand. Pain may radiate up the arm toward the shoulder. Diagnosis is made by the findings of three cardinal signs: Numbness in the distribution of the median nerve in the hand: palm, thumb, index, middle and lateral half of the ring finger.

Extractions: Volume 13, Number 2 This Issue Contents Next Article MRI imaging of peripheral nerves is useful in combination with clinical evaluation and electrophysiological studies in the diagnosis of a broad range of peripheral nerve disorders, including neoplasia, nerve root compression and entrapment syndromes, trauma, and unexplained plexopathy. MRI can define the specific location of nerve root pathology. MRI can also detect secondary findings of muscle denervation. Introduction . There have been dramatic improvements in the imaging of disorders of the central nervous system over the last 2 decades. Neuroradiologists routinely use advanced MR applications, such as diffusion and perfusion imaging for stroke assessment, high resolution imaging for inner ear abnormalities, functional MRI and spectroscopy for brain tumor evaluation. In the past, patients with disorders of the peripheral nervous system were diagnosed by history and physical findings in combination with electrophysiological studies. Nerve conduction studies are an excellent and sensitive test to evaluate patients with suspected peripheral neuropathy. These techniques however may not be able to define the exact anatomic location of the peripheral nerve problem.

Since then, numerous causes have been cited in the etiology of ulnar nerve compression in Guyon's canal. We report two cases of subfascial lipoma of the hypothenar region that were responsible for a sensory disturbance resulting from the compression of the superficial branch of the ulnar nerve at Guyon's canal. A 61-year-old woman presented with a slowly enlarging, painless mass that she had had in her right palm for 2 years ( Fig Figure.

Extractions: January 2001 Diagnosing Disorders Of The Hand Concepts and principles in the management of degenerative hand conditions and hand-injured patients are fast-changing. This is also the case with patterns of hand injury. As it is the primary health physician who usually has initial contact with the patient who has suffered a hand injury, we highlight here some conditions related to the hand. Ergonomics Of The Hand High-speed assembly line production methods and the widespread use of the computer have led to an evident increase in repetitive stress injury (RSI) amongst workers. They arise from ordinary movement such as gripping, tapping, twisting, reaching, etc. These activities will become hazardous when performed repeatedly in a forceful and awkward manner with no rest or sufficient recovery time. Ergonomics is an applied science concerned with the design of workplaces, tools and tasks to match the physiological, anatomical and psychological capabilities of the worker. The main objective of ergonomics in prevention of RSI of the hand is the reduction of extreme joint movement, excessive force and high repetitive movement. Principle of ergonomics are as follows: Placement of tools or materials according to frequency of use.

Tatter, M.D., Ph.D. Intraoperative picture shows the trigeminal nerve with a vessel loop compressing it. Courtesy Dr Eskandar Recent evidence suggests that a number of neurologic syndromes characterized by paroxysms of motor (tics) or sensory (pain) activity may be caused by compression of the cranial nerves at the root entry or exit zone of the brain stem by blood vessels. This has lead to the dramatic demonstration that microsurgical microvascular decompression is a safe and effective treatment for these syndromes when they fail to respond to oral medications. While these syndromes are relatively rare outside of neurosurgical practice in specialized centers they can none-the-less be extremely disabling.
