Mashup Score: 0
Acute compartment syndrome is a rare complication of radial artery catheterization. If not identified and treated emergently, it can lead to profound disability or limb loss. Here, we discuss a rare case of acute compartment syndrome in the forearm of a 54-year-old man after transradial catheterization and anticoagulation for myocardial infarction, which ultimately required emergent fasciotomies…

Mashup Score: 1Isolated Compartment Syndrome of the Hand After Intravenous Doxycycline Infiltration Injury - 3 year(s) ago
Isolated compartment syndrome of the hand, although uncommon, can lead to considerable functional deficits if not treated promptly. The most common etiologies are related to trauma, burns, or electric injuries; however, some cases have been reported after intravenous infiltration events, particularly rapid intravenous contrast injection. In this case report, we describe the development of…

Mashup Score: 0Peripheral Nerve Injury After Upper-Extremity Surgery Performed Under Regional Anesthesia: A Systematic Review - 3 year(s) ago
Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) is a known adverse event following upper-limb surgery performed under brachial plexus regional anesthesia (RA). When PNI is noted after surgery, patients and providers often have questions about which factors might have contributed to this complication. This systematic review evaluates the literature on hand and shoulder surgeries performed under ultrasound-guided,…

Mashup Score: 0An Unusual Pathologic Ulna Fracture Induced by Intraosseous Tumoral Calcium Pyrophosphate Dihydrate Crystal Deposition Disease - 3 year(s) ago
In this case report, we describe a novel occurrence of tumoral calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystal deposition disease (TCPPDCD) in a 76-year-old man that presented as an unusual, intraosseous, metadiaphyseal lesion of a long bone causing a pathologic fracture. A routine intralesional biopsy was performed, demonstrating granular deposits composed of polarizing, overlapping rhomboid crystals…

Mashup Score: 0The Effect of an Electronic Prescribing Policy for Opioids on Physician Prescribing Patterns Following Common Upper Extremity Procedures - 3 year(s) ago
We evaluated physician prescribing patterns before and after the implementation of a state-mandated opioid electronic prescribing (ePrescribing) program after 4 common outpatient hand surgeries. Specifically, we aimed to answer the following: (1) is there a change in the number of opioids prescribed after the institution of ePrescribing for carpal tunnel release (CTR), ganglion excision, distal…

Recent efforts have been made by the American Society for Surgery of the Hand to encourage female inclusion in expert panels. We hypothesized that female representation on expert panels has increased over the past decade and that a directed intervention by the American Society for Surgery of the Hand would be associated with an increased percentage of submissions with female panelists.

Mashup Score: 0Preoperative Opioid Use Results in Greater Postoperative Opioid Consumption After Thumb Basal Joint Arthroplasty - 3 year(s) ago
Thumb basal joint arthroplasty surgery is a common hand surgery after which patients often require opioids. To better understand safe opioid consumption patterns, this study sought to identify risk factors for filling a second prescription and/or prolonged opioid use (prescription over 6 months after the surgery). Preoperative opioid use was hypothesized to show an association with greater…

Mashup Score: 1The Impact of Coronavirus Disease 2019 Restrictions on an Academic Hand Surgery Practice - 3 year(s) ago
The impact of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (coronavirus disease 2019) has been felt worldwide. We examined the quantitative impact during the first 4 weeks of hospital system and state-mandated restrictions on an academic, urban hand surgery practice. We hypothesized that the volume of clinic encounters, office procedures, and surgical cases would decrease and that the…
