Diffuse cerebral swelling following head injuries in children: the syndrome of "malignant brain edema".

abstract：OBJECT:Dissections were performed in 100 fresh cadaver palms to determine the frequency with which superficial palmar communication between the median and ulnar nerves occurs and to what extent it might incur iatrogenic injury during endoscopic carpal tunnel release. METHODS:Superficial palmar communication between th...
