ABSTRACT Objective To study the anatomy of the brachial plexus in fetuses and to evaluate differences in morphology during evolution, or to find anatomical situations that can be identified as the cause of obstetric paralysis. Methods Nine fetuses (12 to 30 weeks of gestation) stored in formalin were...
El registro electromiográfico es una forma de evaluación de los impulsos eléctricos aferentes y
eferentes del sistema muscular al sistema nervioso, su valoración permite explorar lesiones nerviosas
o patologías neuromusculares en unidades motoras o nerviosas específicas, en este caso, valoramos
el ...
Introducción: Los tumores de plexo braquial constituyen una entidad infrecuente. Cuando la lesión cumple con criterios quirúrgicos, el tratamiento ideal es la exéresis completa.
Descripción del caso: Paciente pediátrica con antecedentes de neurofibromatosis que consulta por dolor leve y parestesias...
El plexo braquial se forma a partir de cinco raíces espinales: C5, C6, C7, C8 y T1, proporcionando inervación al miembro superior. Se ha demostrado que el análisis morfométrico de las fibras nerviosas es de gran valor para detectar anormalidades, como el tamaño de los haces nerviosos, el número o t...
Resumen: La lesión del nervio axilar (o circunflejo) aislada es poco frecuente, ésta suele presentarse asociada a una lesión del plexo braquial. En nuestra institución, en un período comprendido entre los años 2015-2017, se ha observado una frecuencia de sólo 0.4% de esta lesión. Con el presente ...
Abstract Objective The purpose of this anatomical study was to analyze the possibility of transferring radial nerve branches to the supinator muscle to reinnervate the posterior interosseous nerve (PIN) originating from the C7-T1 roots. Methods Thirty members of 15 cadavers, all male, prepared with a...
Objective To analyze 78 cases of brachial plexus injury submitted to the Oberlin
technique between 2003 and 2012. The potential complications of this technique were
analyzed, especially motor damage or hypoesthesia of the hand.
Method Medical records from patients with brachial plexus injuries at the lev...
Abstract Interscalene block (ISB) is the brachial plexus approach most frequently used in shoulder surgery, providing better postoperative analgesia and reducing the need for rescue morphine compared to general anesthesia. While it is considered a safe block, it has been associated with a relatively high...

INTRODUCTION: The introduction of ultrasound to regional anesthesia has redefined our understanding on this field; moreover, through ultrasound, regional anesthesia techniques have developed rapidly in response to more specific and complex needs. In this context, some changes and new concepts have raised...
ABSTRACT Objective: This trial investigated postoperative analgesia in arthroscopic rotator cuff repair surgery patients under general anesthesia, associated with ultrasound-guided peri-plexus interscalene brachial plexus block (US-IBPB), and compared single injection to elastomeric pump continuous infu...
