Publication Metadata only Neuropathic arthropathy of the elbow: A report of two cases(2006-04-01) Aasis Unnanuntana; Saranatra Waikakul; Mahidol UniversityBackground: Neuropathic arthropathy (charcot joint) of the elbow is a rare condition. It is among the least frequently reported charcot pathology of the joint. The clinical symptoms are characterized by a painless and unstable joint. Infection... in the neuropathic joint is rare. Only a limited number of cases have been reported in the literature. The authors present two cases of neuropathic arthropathy of the elbow. One of them was diagnosed as Septic neuropathic arthropathy. Material and Method: TwoPublication Metadata only Neglected dislocation of the elbow(2005-02-01) Banchong Mahaisavariya; Wiroon Laupattarakasem; Mahidol University; Khon Kaen UniversityWe retrospectively review the intermediate-term to long-term results of 24 patients treated after late open reduction of neglected posterior elbow dislocation in terms of the elbow, particularly noting joint mobility. The mean interval from injury... to operation was 7.9 months (range, 1-60 months). The posterior approach with V-Y muscleplasty was used in most patients with 2 to 3 weeks postoperative immobilization. The average preoperative arc of elbow flexion was from 17° with an average maximum flexionPublication Metadata only Midterm outcome of partial radial head replacement with a contoured iliac crest bone graft in complex elbow dislocation(2018-01-01) Suriya Luenam; Arkaphat Kosiyatrakul; Winai Jangsombatsiri; Nitikorn Pimpabootr; Torpon Vathana; Faculty of Medicine, Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University; Phramongkutklao College of Medicine© The Author(s) 2018. Purpose: To report the midterm outcome of a novel reconstructive technique using a contoured iliac crest bone graft for partial radial head replacement in the treatment of complex elbow dislocation. Material and methods...: Between January 2008 and December 2013, 10 patients (5 women, 5 men; mean age, 43.8 years; mean follow-up duration, 65.9 months) with complex elbow dislocation who underwent the partial radial head replacement with the contoured bone graft were includedPublication Metadata only Elbow joint proprioceptive sense in total arm-type brachial plexus injured patients after neurotization: A preliminary study(2014-01-01) Therdsak Homsreprasert; Roongsak Limthongthang; Torpon Vathana; Saichol Wongtrakul; Panupan Songcharoen; Mahidol Universityof proprioceptive sensation in brachial plexus injured patients after neurotization. Objective: To study elbow joint position sense or proprioceptive sense in total arm-type brachial plexus injured patients after neurotization. Material and Method: The present study...-type brachial plexus injured patients after neurotization, the latter seven of whom experienced recovery of motor power of biceps to at least MRC III. All patients were examined using the CONTREX dynamometer to assess elbow joint position senseItem Metadata only Effect of shorter nerve graft and selective motor branch of recipient nerve on nerve transfer surgery for elbow flexion in patients with brachial plexus injury(2023-11-01) Pengked K.; Laohaprasitiporn P.; Monteerarat Y.; Limthongthang R.; Vathana T.; Mahidol UniversityOBJECTIVE: The spinal accessory nerve (SAN) is commonly used as a donor nerve for reinnervation of elbow flexors in brachial plexus injury (BPI) reconstruction. However, no study has compared the postoperative outcomes between SAN...-to-musculocutaneous nerve (MCN) transfer and SAN-to-nerve to biceps (NTB) transfer. Thus, this study aimed to compare the postoperative time to recovery of elbow flexors between the two groups. METHODS: A total of 748 patients who underwent surgical treatment for BPIPublication Metadata only Spinal accessory neurotization for restoration of elbow flexion in avulsion injuries of the brachial plexus(1996-01-01) P. Songcharoen; B. Mahaisavariya; C. Chotigavanich; Mahidol UniversityTraumatic root avulsion brachial plexus injuries in 216 patients were treated with spinal accessory-musculocutaneous neurotization to restore elbow flexion. The average postoperative follow-up period was 6 years, with a minimum of 2 years for all... underwent operation later than 9 months after injury. This method of neurotization produces a result comparable with, if not better than, the results of other types of neurotization in restoration of elbow flexion.Item Metadata only The lateral collateral ligament complex of the elbow in a Thai population: an anatomical study of 56 cadaveric specimens(2022-10-01) Saengsirinavin P.; Ratanalekha R.; Piempuk N.; Sriratanavudhi C.; Jongthanakamol T.; Jaroenporn W.; Mahidol UniversityThe purpose of this study was to investigate the anatomical features of the lateral collateral complex (LCC) of the elbow in a Thai population. We dissected 56 cadaveric elbows and described the LCC three-dimensionally in sagittal and coronal planes... sexes. These data may be useful for surgeons during reconstruction of injures to the LCC of the elbow. Level of evidence: VPublication Metadata only Functional outcomes of ultrasound-guided platelet rich plasma injection in recalcitrant lateral epicondylitis after steroid injection: A case series(2018-03-01) Panithan Tuntiyatorn; Tulyapruek Tawonsawatruk; Thepparat Kanchanathepsak; Ittirat Watcharananan; Faculty of Medicine, Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University© 2018, Medical Association of Thailand. All rights reserved. Background: Platelet rich plasma [PRP] contains several growth factors which can improve functional outcomes in tendinopathies, especially tennis elbow. However, there have been... no reports on the clinical use of PRP injection in patients who have had previous corticosteroid injections. Objective: PRP injection can improve elbow function in patients with elbow tendinopathy who have a history of previous corticosteroid injectionItem Metadata only Comparative Analysis of Treatment Outcomes: Modified Ulnar Gutter Slab vs. Sugar Tong Slab for Distal Radioulnar Joint Instability Following Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex Repair(2023-10-01) Tawonsawatruk T.; Phoophiboon P.; Kanchanathepsak T.; Tuntiyatorn P.; Mahidol UniversityThe standard treatment for distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) instability involves repairing the triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) and immobilizing the joint with a sugar tong slab, but this can cause elbow stiffness. To address this, a modified... ulnar gutter slab was designed to enhance elbow mobility during immobilization. A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted on 23 DRUJ instability patients who underwent arthroscopic TFCC repair. Two post-operative splinting techniques wereItem Metadata only Skin blood flow as an objective measure for lateral elbow tendinopathy(2023-12-12) Sakulsriprasert P.; Bunprajun T.; Soonthonsawat S.; Sakulsriprasert P.; Mahidol UniversityPURPOSE: To investigate the test-retest reliability, side-to-side difference, responsiveness, and concurrent validity of skin blood flow (SkBF) measured by laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) in individuals with acute or subacute lateral elbow... origin was –3.54. The ES and SRM ranged from –0.71 to –0.78. Concurrent validity was reported with a strong correlation with pain intensity (r = –0.637). DISCUSSION: SkBF is a reliable and responsive variable for investigating the elbows with acute
