The acute ischemic damage of a nerve can give a pattern of conduction block in the electroneurographic study as in the RMN of the presented case. This phenomenon is referred as "pseudo-conduction block", since it is transient and evolves towards a definite pattern of axonal neuropathy. When a vasculitic neuropathy is suspected, repeated neurophysiologic studies are necessary in order to ensure a proper (appropriate) characterization of the lesional patterns.
RESUMENEl condroblastoma es un tumor benigno de origen cartilaginoso que representa menos del 1% de todos los tumores óseos primarios. Se localiza típicamente en la epífisis de los huesos largos. Un 10% de los condroblastomas afectan a huesos del pie y de la mano. El asiento de esta lesión en el carpo es extraordinariamente raro.Se presenta un caso de condroblastoma del escafoides del carpo que fue tratado mediante curetaje de la lesión y relleno con injerto óseo autólogo de cresta iliaca.Palabras clave. Condroblastoma. Escafoides.
ABSTRACTA chondroblastoma is a benign tumour of cartilaginous origin which represents less than 1% of all primary osseous tumours. It is typically localised in the epiphysis of the long bones. Some 10% of chondroblastomas affect the bones of the foot and the hand. It is extremely rare for the seat of this lesion to be in the carpal bones.We present a case of chondroblastoma of the carpal scaphoids that was treated through curretage of the lesion and filling with autologous osseous graft from the iliac crest.Palabras clave. Chondroblastoma. Scaphoids.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
