SUMMARY: Peripheral nerve injury is an extremely important medical and socio-economic problem. It is far from a solution, despite on rapid development of technologies. To study the effect of long-term electrical stimulation of peripheral nerves, we used a domestically produced electrical stimulation syst...
SUMMARY: The Innervation Zones (IZ) correspond to clusters of neuromuscular junctions. The traditional method of locating IZs through voluntary muscle contractions may not be feasible in individuals with motor disorders. Imposed contractions by electrostimulation are an alternative. However, there is lim...
SUMMARY: The teres minor is one of the rotator cuff muscles that comprise the superior margin of the quadrangular space. Quadrangular space syndrome (QSS) refers to the entrapment or compression of the axillary nerve and the posterior humeral circumflex artery in the quadrangular space, often caused by i...
SUMMARY: Anatomic variation of the biceps brachii muscle (BBM) is frequently observed; its pattern is diverse and clinically important. During the educational dissection of a 78-year-old Korean male cadaver, six additional asymmetrical heads of the biceps brachii muscle (BBM) were found on both sides. On...
RESUMEN: Las lesiones del nervio fibular común y/o sus ramos derivados trae como consecuencia, pérdida total o parcial de la capacidad para realizar flexión dorsal del complejo tobillo-pie, una opción viable para tratar esta patología es la transferencia nerviosa, que consiste en utilizar un nervio ...
SUMMARY: This study aimed to accurately localize the location and depth of the centre of the highest region of muscle spindle abundance (CHRMSA) of the triceps brachii muscle. Twenty-four adult cadavers were placed in the prone position. The curve connecting the acromion and lateral epicondyle of the hum...
SUMMARY: Hip joint chronic pain can severely compromise patients' life quality. Peripheral nerve blocks play an important role as diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The aim of this work is to study the anatomy of the nerve to quadratus femoris (NQF) in view of the possibility of its percutaneous sele...
Los músculos lumbricales (ML) de la mano humana son claves en la propiocepción de la flexoextensión de los dedos. La descripción de su inervación indica que el nervio mediano (NM) inerva los dos ML laterales (L1 y L2) y el nervio ulnar (NU) los ML mediales (L3 y L4). Diversos autores han reportado u...
RESUMEN: El músculo extensor corto de los dedos (ECD) se sitúa junto con el músculo extensor corto del hallux (ECH) en la región dorsal del pie y están encargados de colaborar con la acción agonista de los músculos extensor largo de los dedos (ELD) y extensor largo del hallux (ELH), en la extensi�...
El nervio para el músculo braquiorradial (BR) ha sido utilizado en transferencias nerviosas para recuperaciones en funciones de la mano como consecuencias de lesiones que afectan el plexo braquial. Con el propósito de investigar el número y localización biométrica de los ramos primarios provenientes...
