Answer 12

Ulnar nerve c8-t1

Question 13

This nerve provides sensation to the dorsum of the hand digits 1-3

Answer 13

Radial nerve C6-8

Question 14

This will cause weakness of FPL, APB, FDP, sensory disturbances to digits 1-3 and thenar eminence plus weakness of Pronator teres

Answer 14

Ligament of struthers entrapment

Question 15

With this nerve entrapment you will will have weakness of FPL, APB, FDP digits 2-3. Have numbness of digits 1-3 and thenar eminence

Answer 15

Median- Pronator teres syndrome

Question 16

This syndrome has weakness of PFL, FDP. Forearm pain but no sensory symptoms. Unable to make OK sign

Answer 16

Anterior interosseus syndrome

Question 17

Nocturnal symptoms, shaking hands relieve symptoms, sensation of thenar eminence is spared

Answer 17

Carpal tunnel

Question 18

Answer 18

Shaking hands improves symptoms
Wrist ratio index >.67
Symptoms severity score >1.9
Diminished sensation of the thumb
Age>45

Question 19

This is compression where there’s triceps loss, wrist drop, thumb extension weakness paresthesia of posterior lateral arm, posterior hand and wrist.

Answer 19

Crutch palsy/posterior cord compession

Question 20

This has wrist drop, thumb extension weakness paresthesia of posterior lateral arm, posterior hand and wrist. Full triceps strength.

Answer 20

Honeymooners or Saturday night Palsy. Radial nerve

Question 21

This will have a deep ache distal to the lateral epicondyle, no sensory symptoms, aggravated by repetitive wrist flexion and pronation. Weak thumb extension, index finger extension, painful resisted supination.

Answer 21

Compression of the posterior interroseus nerve/radial in the arcade of frohse/radial tunnel

Question 22

Positive tinel’s at site, positive finklesteins with pain or sensory disturbance on dorsum of hand

Answer 22

Radial nerve, warrenbergs, handcuff palsy.

Question 23

This has pain and sensory symptoms at 4th and 5th digits. Symptoms worse with elbow flexion, positive froments, and wartenberg (5th digit abducted)

Answer 23

Cubital tunnel, ulnar nerve compression

Question 24

This has weakness of the ulnar intrinsics, sensory symptoms at hypothenar and palmar 4th and 5th digits. Can only be sensory or only motor.

Answer 24

Compression the of the ulnar nerve at guyon’s canal

Question 25

What’s the difference between entrapment at cubital tunnel and guyons canal compression?

Answer 25

Guyons canal only has sensory symptoms on Palmer aspect of hand, while cubital tunnel has sensory symptoms on dorsal and palmar aspect of the hand

Question 26

Claw hand deformity of 4th and 5th digits is due to what nerve?

Answer 26

Ulnar

Question 27

What radic is pain in shoulder neck, anterior arm, inferior deltoid and lateral elbow. Motor loss to deltoid and decreased reflexes is biceps and brachioradialis.

Answer 27

C5

Question 28

What radic? This is pain at upper arm, thumb, radial forearm, sensory loss at thumb index finger, radial forearm. Loss of elbow flexion and loss of biceps and brachioradialis reflexes

Answer 28

C6

Question 29

This radic will have neck, shoulder, and dorsum of the forearm pain, decreased sensation at middle finger and middle posterior forearm, weakness of elbow extension and forearm extension. Decreased triceps reflex

Answer 29

C7

Question 30

This radic will have pain at the neck, ulnar forearm, decreased sensation of little finger, hypothenar eminence. Weak finger flexion and wrist flexion

Answer 30

C8

Question 31

This will have sensory disturbances of the medial elbow and ulnar forearm. Weak finger adduction

Answer 31

T1

Question 32

How would you distinguish C5 from axillary nerve?

Answer 32

C5 will have distal symptoms below the deltoid

Question 33

How do you distinguish c6 from median nerve?

Answer 33

C6 radic will have sensory loss above the wrist. Elbow flexion weakness indicates c6 radic.

Question 34

How would you distinguish c7 radic from radial nerve?

Answer 34

C7 radic would have triceps weakness unless its crutch palsy, but the radic would have weakness of wrist flexion and pronation

Question 35

How would you distinguish between C8 radic and ulnar nerve

Answer 35

Sensation loss above the wrist indicates c8 radic

Question 36
