Farmers and veterinarians are at a higher risk for infection owing to frequent direct animal contact. An increase in cases among humans has been observed in the past few years. We report a rare case of T verrucosum of the forearm in a 51-year-old cattle farmer, who…

Mashup Score: 1Revascularization of a Circumferential Hand and Forearm Degloving Injury Using an Arteriovenous Shunt - 3 year(s) ago
Major upper-extremity degloving injuries with distal dysvascularity are rare and challenging surgical problems. When these degloving injuries occur over nonexpendable regions, such as the glabrous skin of the palm and digits, revascularization or replantation may be the treatment of choice. Because the degloved skin flap is often separated in the suprafascial plane, direct arterial repair may be…

Mashup Score: 1Continuous External Tissue Expansion Closure Technique for Management of Forearm Compartment Syndrome Releases and Simple Upper-Extremity Wounds - 3 year(s) ago
Upper-extremity wounds from various etiologies such as trauma and fasciotomies can prove to be problematic for the upper-extremity surgeon. These defects can result in considerable morbidity often requiring prolonged wound care and the eventual use of skin grafting from a separate painful donor site. Tissue expansion takes advantage of the viscoelastic properties of skin to provide additional…

Mashup Score: 0Impact of Biofeedback in the Treatment of Nonspecific Persistent Wrist and Forearm Pain in Adolescents - 3 year(s) ago
Biofeedback is a self-regulation technique in which patients learn to control what were once thought to be involuntary bodily processes. The goal of this study was to examine a sample of adolescents with persistent, nonspecific wrist and forearm pain to assess whether biofeedback can improve symptoms. A secondary goal was to identify any shared characteristics.
