This syndrome is characterized by paralysis of the flexor pollicis longus, the flexor digitorum profundus to the index finger, and the pronator quadratus, with weakness on flexion of the interphalangeal joint of the thumb and the distal interphalangeal joint of the index finger without sensory loss.<\/jats:p><jats:p content-type=\"fine-print\"><jats:italic>Methods.<\/jats:italic> The authors reviewed reports of 34 cases of anterior interosseous nerve syndrome combined with supracondylar fractures of the humerus in children. They have added a new case identified in a 7-year-old boy in whom a diagnosis was made from the clinical findings and whose treatment and outcome are analyzed. The ages of patients reported in the literature ranged from 4 to 10 years. Ten patients (29%) were treated with closed reduction and application of a cast, whereas 25 patients (71%) were treated with open reduction and fixation of the fracture.<\/jats:p><jats:p content-type=\"fine-print\"><jats:italic>Conclusions.<\/jats:italic> All patients regained full flexion and strength after 4 to 17 weeks. The fractures that were surgically treated showed no entrapment of the anterior interosseous nerve.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3171\/jns.1999.90.6.1053","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,5,13]],"date-time":"2009-05-13T17:20:38Z","timestamp":1242235238000},"page":"1053-1056","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":25,"title":["Anterior interosseous nerve compression after supracondylar fracture of the humerus: a metaanalysis"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"90","author":[{"given":"Alexander","family":"Joist","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Uwe","family":"Joosten","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dirk","family":"Wetterkamp","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Michael","family":"Neuber","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Axel","family":"Probst","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Horst","family":"Rieger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1754","reference":[{"key":"b1","series-title":"Muscle Nerve","first-page":"878","article-title":"Anterior interosseous nerve syndrome in postinfectious demyelinating neuropathy.","volume":"16","author":"Baba","year":"1993"},{"key":"b2","series-title":"Injury","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"294","DOI":"10.1016\/0020-1383(89)90172-1","article-title":"Anterior interosseous nerve paralysis: an underdiagnosed complication of supracondylar fracture of the humerus in children.","volume":"20","author":"Bamford","year":"1989"},{"key":"b3","series-title":"Injury","first-page":"126","article-title":"Anterior interosseous nerve palsy and dislocation of the elbow.","volume":"16","author":"Beverly","year":"1984"},{"key":"b4","series-title":"J Hand Surg (Am)","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"244","DOI":"10.1016\/S0363-5023(10)80104-2","article-title":"Spontaneous bilateral nerve compressions in the distal arm.","volume":"16","author":"Braun","year":"1991"},{"key":"b5","series-title":"Can J Neurol Sci","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"56","DOI":"10.1017\/S0317167100047429","article-title":"Anterior interosseous neuropathy in the postpartum period.","volume":"20","author":"Carmant","year":"1993"},{"key":"b6","series-title":"Arch Phys Med Rehabil","first-page":"406","article-title":"Isolated complete denervation of the flexor pollicis longus.","volume":"71","author":"Convay","year":"1990"},{"key":"b7","series-title":"J Bone Joint Surg (Am)","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1211","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-199072080-00013","article-title":"Neural injuries associated with supracondylar fractures of the humerus in children.","volume":"72","author":"Culp","year":"1990"},{"key":"b8","series-title":"J Bone Joint Surg (Br)","first-page":"91","article-title":"Anterior interosseous nerve palsy.","volume":"47","author":"d'A.
