Abstract
- Nerve torsion is a rare condition that causes sensory abnormalities and decreased muscle strength due to a nerve-twisting phenomenon in the peripheral nerves. To date, the progression of the condition from its cause to diagnosis and treatment has not been established.The authors report three cases of good results from the treatment of nerve torsion in the anterior interosseous and radial nerves with epineurotomy and neurolysis.
