[Radial nerve paralysis in congenital angioleiomyoma]. 1979

F Sünram, and P Hippe

An isolated paralysis of the radial nerve in a newborn was reported. The displaced growth of the histologically proved angioleiomyoma caused a circumferential compression with subsequent atrophy of the nerve (Fig. 4). During operative treatment of the tumor, the damaged part of the nerve was resected, too. In a second stage the defect in the nerve was closed by suralis grafts. Possibly due to scar adhesions a good result was not obtained.

D007889	Leiomyoma	A benign tumor derived from smooth muscle tissue, also known as a fibroid tumor. They rarely occur outside of the UTERUS and the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT but can occur in the SKIN and SUBCUTANEOUS TISSUE, probably arising from the smooth muscle of small blood vessels in these tissues.

D010243	Paralysis	A general term most often used to describe severe or complete loss of muscle strength due to motor system disease from the level of the cerebral cortex to the muscle fiber. This term may also occasionally refer to a loss of sensory function.

D011826	Radial Nerve	A major nerve of the upper extremity. In humans the fibers of the radial nerve originate in the lower cervical and upper thoracic spinal cord (usually C5 to T1), travel via the posterior cord of the brachial plexus, and supply motor innervation to extensor muscles of the arm and cutaneous sensory fibers to extensor regions of the arm and hand.
