- Elective amputation of the upper limb is an option in the treatment of traumatic injuries of the brachial plexus?(2017) SIQUEIRA, Mario Gilberto; MARTINS, Roberto Sergio; HEISE, Carlos Otto; FORONI, LucianoThe treatment of complete post-traumatic brachial plexus palsy resulting in a flail shoulder and upper extremity remains a challenge to peripheral nerve surgeons. The option of upper limb amputation is controversial and scarcely discussed in the literature. We believe that elective amputation still has a role in the treatment of select cases. The pros and cons of the procedure should be intensely discussed with the patient by a multidisciplinary team. Better outcomes are usually achieved in active patients who strongly advocate for the procedure.
- Prognostic value of thumb pain sensation in birth brachial plexopathy(2012) HEISE, Carlos O.; MARTINS, Roberto S.; FORONI, Luciano H.; SIQUEIRA, Mario G.Objective: To evaluate the prognostic value of absent thumb pain sensation in newborns and young infants with birth brachial plexopathy. Methods: We evaluated 131 patients with birth brachial plexopathy with less than two months of age. Pain sensation was evoked by thumb nail bed compression to evaluate sensory fibers of the upper trunk (C6). The patients were followed-up monthly. Patients with less than antigravity elbow flexion at six months of age were considered to have a poor outcome. Results: Thirty patients had absent thumb pain sensation, from which 26 showed a poor outcome. Sensitivity of the test was 65% and specificity was 96%. Conclusion: Evaluation of thumb pain sensation should be included in the clinical assessment of infants with birth brachial plexopathy.
- Traumatic injuries of peripheral nerves: a review with emphasis on surgical indication(2013) MARTINS, Roberto Sergio; BASTOS, Dhiego; SIQUEIRA, Mario Gilberto; HEISE, Carlos Otto; TEIXEIRA, Manoel JacobsenTraumatic peripheral nerve injury is a dramatic condition present in many of the injuries to the upper and lower extremities. An understanding of its physiopathology and selection of a suitable time for surgery are necessary for proper treatment of this challenging disorder. This article reviews the physiopathology of traumatic peripheral nerve injury, considers the most used classification, and discusses the main aspects of surgical timing and treatment of such a condition.
- Clinically nonfunctioning pituitary adenoma growth after radiosurgery(2012) BATISTA, Rafael Loch; TOSCANINI, Andrea Cecilia; GLEZER, Andrea; SIQUEIRA, Mario Gilberto; BENABOU, Salomon; FONOFF, Erick Talamoni; TAVARES, Wagner Malago; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; CUNHA NETO, Malebranche Berardo Carneiro da
- Conservative therapeutic management of carpal tunnel syndrome(2017) MARTINS, Roberto Sergio; SIQUEIRA, Mario GilbertoCarpal tunnel syndrome is the most prevalent nerve compression and can be clinically or surgically treated. In most cases, the first therapeutic alternative is conservative treatment but there is still much controversy regarding the most effective modality of this treatment. In this study, we critically evaluated the options of conservative treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome, aiming to guide the reader through the conventional options used in this therapy.

article 31 Citação(ões) na Scopus Surgical treatment of adult traumatic brachial plexus injuries An overview(2011) SIQUEIRA, Mario G.; MARTINS, Roberto S.Traumatic injuries to the brachial plexus in adults are severely debilitating. They generally affect young individuals. A thorough understanding of the anatomy, clinical evaluation, imaging and electrodiagnostic assessments, treatment options and proper timing of surgical interventions will enable nerve surgeons to offer optimal care to patients. Advances in microsurgical technique have improved the outcome for many of these patients. The treatment options offer patients with brachial plexus injuries the possibility of achieving elbow flexion, shoulder stability with limited abduction and the hope of limited but potentially useful hand function.- Neonatal brachial plexus palsy: a permanent challenge(2015) HEISE, Carlos Otto; MARTINS, Roberto; SIQUEIRA, MarioNeonatal brachial plexus palsy (NBPP) has an incidence of 1.5 cases per 1000 live births and it has not declined despite recent advances in obstetrics. Most patients will recover spontaneously, but some will remain severely handicapped. Rehabilitation is important in most cases and brachial plexus surgery can improve the functional outcome of selected patients. This review highlights the current management of infants with NBPP, including conservative and operative approaches.
article 2 Citação(ões) na Scopus Critical analysis of extra peritoneal antero-lateral approach for lumbar plexus(2011) MARTINS, Roberto Sergio; MONACO, Bernardo Assumpcao; SIQUEIRA, Mario Gilberto; FORONI, Luciano; HEISE, Carlos Otto; TEIXEIRA, Manoel JacobsenLesions of lumbar plexus are uncommon and descriptions of surgical access are derived from vertebral spine approaches. Method: The extraperitoneal anterolateral approach to the lumbar plexus was performed in six adult fresh cadavers. The difficulties on dissection were related. Results: An exposure of all distal elements of lumbar plexus was possible, but a cranial extension of the incision was needed to reach the iliohypogastric nerve in all cases. Ligation of vessels derived from common iliac artery was necessary for genitofemoral and obturator nerves exposure in two cases. The most proximal part of the lumbar roots could be identified only after dissection and clipping of most lumbar vessels. Conclusion: The extraperitoneal anterolateral approach allows appropriate exposure of terminal nerves of lumbar plexus laterallly to psoas major muscle. Cranial extension of the cutaneous incision may be necessary for exposure of iliohypogastric nerve. Roots exposure increases the risk of vascular damage.- The intercostobrachial nerve as a sensory donor for hand reinnervation in brachial plexus reconstruction is a feasible technique and may be useful for restoring sensation(2017) FORONI, Luciano; SIQUEIRA, Mario Gilberto; MARTINS, Roberto Sergio; OLIVEIRA, Gabriela PintarObjective: Few donors are available for restoration of sensibility in patients with complete brachial plexus injuries.The objective of our study was to evaluate the anatomical feasibility of using the intercostobrachial nerve (ICBN) as an axon donor to the lateral cord contribution to the median nerve (LCMN). Methods: Thirty cadavers were dissected. Data of the ICBN and the LCMN were collected, including diameters, branches and distances. Results:The diameters of the ICBN and the LCMN at their point of coaptation were 2.7mm and 3.7mm, respectively. The ICBN originated as a single trunk in 93.3% of the specimens and bifurcated in 73.3%.The distance between the ICBN origin and its point of coaptation to the LCMN was 54mm. All ICBNs had enough extension to reach the LCMN. Conclusion: Transfer of the ICBN to the LCMN is anatomically feasible and may be useful for restoring sensation in patients with complete brachial plexus injuries.
