The aim of this study is to assess the surgical outcomes of SBRN release at the level of the brachioradialis arcade.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>A retrospective study of prospectively collected data was conducted on patients undergoing brachioradialis release (BRR) from March 2014 to March 2021. The measured outcomes included quick-DASH (Disability of the Arm Shoulder Hand questionnaire), work-DASH, visual analog scale (VAS) scores for pain, and patient satisfaction with surgery, at a minimum\u00a0six\u00a0month follow-up.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>A total of twenty patients (mean age of 44.1 (range 25\u201362) were included in this study, of which\u00a0nine (45%) were males. Eleven patients (55%) underwent isolated BRR, while the other nine patients (45%) underwent concomitant BRR and lacertus release. The three most common presenting symptoms in patients with isolated BRS were radiovolar forearm pain (100%), disturbed sensation in the SBRN territory (85%), and hand\/thumb fatigue (75%). Forearm pain and fatigue were found in all patients with combined BRS and lacertus syndrome. The response rate for the functional outcome scores was 65% (13\/20). Quick-DASH significantly improved (preoperative 29.6 (range 13.6\u201357.5) to postoperative 6.9 (range 0\u201327.27), <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.0001) as did the work DASH (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.0001). Follow-up VAS Pain was 1 and satisfaction with surgery 9.6.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>BRS is an uncommon radial nerve compression syndrome in the proximal forearm that differs from the more commonly recognized radial tunnel syndrome. It presents with radio-volar forearm pain, disturbed sensation in the SBRN distribution, and loss of hand\/thumb endurance. Minimally invasive BRR immediately restores wrist extension strength, significantly improves DASH scores, and yields positive outcomes at a minimum six-month follow-up.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00264-024-06350-x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,17]],"date-time":"2024-10-17T11:02:16Z","timestamp":1729162936000},"page":"799-804","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Special issue: nerve compression syndromes \u201cBrachioradialis, or \u201cHigh Wartenberg\u201d, syndrome \u2013 compression of the sensory branch of the radial nerve in the proximal forearm"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"49","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6667-2593","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Elisabet","family":"Hagert","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7676-6633","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Camila","family":"Azocar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ulrika","family":"Jedeskog","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8442-9768","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ashraf","family":"Hantouly","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"6350_CR1","volume-title":"In: StatPearls [Internet]","author":"JH Anthony","year":"2024","unstructured":"Anthony JH, Hadeed A, Hoffler CE (2024) Cheiralgia Paresthetica.
