Abstract

Orthopedic hardware can cause impingement on soft tissues, which include tendons, muscles, nerves, and vessels. We describe a rare case of impingement of the superficial radial nerve (SRN) by a Kirschner wire used for distal radio ulnar stabilization in a 53-year-old female who presented with new symptoms of pain and paraesthesia involving the distribution of SRN at 6 weeks follow-up post surgery, which is further managed by neurolysis and trimming of the impinging K wire. In this report, we highlight the role of ultrasound and advise the incorporation of innovative approaches in the diagnosis and management.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Clinical Ultrasound (JCU) is an international journal dedicated to the worldwide dissemination of scientific information on diagnostic and therapeutic applications of medical sonography. The scope of the journal includes--but is not limited to--the following areas: sonography of the gastrointestinal tract, genitourinary tract, vascular system, nervous system, head and neck, chest, breast, musculoskeletal system, and other superficial structures; Doppler applications; obstetric and pediatric applications; and interventional sonography. Studies comparing sonography with other imaging modalities are encouraged, as are studies evaluating the economic impact of sonography. Also within the journal''s scope are innovations and improvements in instrumentation and examination techniques and the use of contrast agents. JCU publishes original research articles, case reports, pictorial essays, technical notes, and letters to the editor. The journal is also dedicated to being an educational resource for its readers, through the publication of review articles and various scientific contributions from members of the editorial board and other world-renowned experts in sonography.
