posterior antebrachial cutaneous nerve conduction study in Radial Neuropathy
Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2004Co-Authors: Kumar M Prakash, T H Leoh, Y F Dan, Y E Tan, Pavanni RatnagopalAbstract:Radial Neuropathy most commonly occurs as a result of external compression at the spiral groove region. The posterior antebrachial cutaneous nerve (PACN) conduction study was performed in 15 consecutive patients with Radial palsy. Unilateral PACN abnormalities were present in 11 patients. A normal PACN study was correlated with clinical improvement at 3 months. Conversely, PACN abnormality was correlated with Radial motor axon loss and a poorer prognosis. The PACN study is a simple adjunct which provides additional information relating to the diagnosis and prognosis of Radial lesions.

rapid ultrasonographic diagnosis of Radial entrapment Neuropathy at the spiral groove
Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2008Co-Authors: Stephanie Fookchong, T H Leoh, Y F Dan, Y E Tan, M P Lee, H Y Gan, L L ChanAbstract:Abstract Background Entrapment Neuropathy of the Radial nerve at the spiral groove region is relatively common. However, its localization may be technically challenging. Objective To evaluate the use of ultrasound (US), in relation to electrophysiological testing, for this purpose. Methods We studied 32 normal controls to obtain US parameters of the Radial nerve. In addition, 10 patients with suspected Radial Neuropathy were tested using US and electrophysiological techniques. Results US examination correctly identified all 6 patients with Radial Neuropathy. The other 4 patients with alternate diagnoses did not show US abnormalities exceeding that of normal controls. US examination required a significantly shorter time than electrophysiological testing. Conclusions US is of value as a rapid diagnostic adjunct for the localization of Radial nerve entrapment.
