Posterior Interosseous Nerve Syndrome

Lipomas are common benign soft tissue neoplasms that occur usually in subcutaneous tissue. In rare instances they can occu r in the deep soft tissue such as intramuscular and parosteal sites. When an intramuscular lipoma occurring in the proximal forearm or adjacent to the proximal radius they can compress the posterior interosseous branch of radial nerve and cause paralysis o f posterior interosseous nerve. In this report we describe an unusual case of a 55 - year - old man with posterior interosseous nerve syndrome caused by quite small intramuscular lipoma.

Posterior Interosseous Nerve Syndrome

Background. Due to anatomical proximity to bone, the radial nerve is the most frequently injured major nerve of the upper extremity, frequently secondary to fractures (Li et al. (2013)). We describe an incidence when a branch of the radial nerve is injured as a result of a thermal injury.Observation. Radial nerve injury can occur anywhere along the anatomical course with varied etiologies, but commonly related to trauma. The most frequent site is in the proximal forearm involving the posterior interosseous branch. However, problems can occur at the junction of the middle and proximal thirds of the humerus and wrist radially. When the radial nerve is injured by a burn, a new rehabilitation dynamic arises. Not only does one agonize about the return of nerve function but also fret about the skin grafts that replaced the devitalized tissue housing that compartment.Discussion. Although posterior interosseous nerve syndrome has been described in the context of many different etiologies, it has not previously been discussed in relation to burn injuries. In this case, not only did the patient’s rehabilitation involve aggressive therapy for return of sensation and function of the arm, but also prevention of contracture normally seen in replacement of full thickness burns.

AbstractObjective:To describe the first published case of superficial angiomyxoma with an epithelial component occurring in the retropharynx.Method:Case report of a patient with swallowing difficulties caused by a rare case of superficial angiomyxoma in the retropharynx.Results:Superficial angiomyxoma is a distinct entity among the dermal myxomatous lesions. Superficial angiomyxoma is poorly circumscribed, and local recurrence is common unless the tumour is excised with clear margins. Distinctive histological features include a myxoid mass composed of spindle and stellate-shaped cells and occasional multinucleated cells. There is prominent vasculature and a mixed inflammatory infiltrate in the stroma, particularly by neutrophil polymorphs. Epithelial structures are seen in about one-third of cases. A case of retropharyngeal tumour with morphological features of superficial angiomyxoma is reported. The tumour cells, including multinucleated ones, were negative for soft tissue differentiation markers. The inflammatory cells included lymphocytes, histiocytes and neutrophil polymorphs.Conclusion:This case demonstrates that a cutaneous type of angiomyxoma with epithelial-lined structures can occur in deep soft tissue, such as the retropharynx.

Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma, also known as Evans tumor, is a low-grade sarcoma that most commonly arises in the deep soft tissue of the proximal extremities or trunk in young adults. It is very rare in the viscera as a primary site, with only a few cases reported in the literature. Here, we present a case of Evans tumor occurring in an unusual and rarely reported location; an intrathoracic mass arising from the diaphragmatic pleura.

Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a soft tissue infection affecting subcutaneous tissue and the muscular fascia without involvement of the muscle and can be either monomicrobial or polymicrobial. Monomicrobial infections are usually caused by group A streptococci, while infections caused by anaerobic germs usually affect immunodepressed patients. We report a rare case of NF caused by two anaerobic bacteria in an immunocompetent patient.

An intramuscular lipoma is a deep-seated, rare, benign mesenchymal tumor that arises in skeletal muscle. These soft-tissue masses are rarely reported in the foot. We describe an unusual case of an intramuscular lipoma of the flexor hallucis brevis muscle. A review of the literature revealed only one previous report of this lesion in the foot.

ABSTRACT Lipomas can be found anywhere in the body, with the majority being located in the head and neck region, as well as the back and abdomen. Lipomas are one of the most common benign, mesenchymal neoplasms. They may progress in size overtime and they may or may not be painful. They may be superficial or deep. Deep soft-tissue lipomas of the hand are rare. Among them, thenar intramuscular lipomas are very rare. We are reporting case of thenar intramuscular lipoma.

Lipoma, though one of the most common benign mesenchymal neoplasms, its presentation in hand is very rare. It can be located in various planes. Intramuscular lipomas are uncommon and usually occur in the proximal muscles of the extremities. Intramuscular lipoma of hand is extremely rare and only very few cases have been reported in the literature. Lipomas of hand may present with neurovascular deficit due to compression. We present here an unusual case of intramuscular lipoma of thenar region with no neurovascular deficit which was surgically excised under local anaesthesia with good cosmetic and functional outcome.
