Ref.: Possible neuropraxia due to improper/too long application of tourniquet.
From: Wim Brandsma,
Dear Angelika,
Thank you very much for your message dated LML Jan. 23rd, 2010. I feel sorry for the patients three out of four..
To me it seems that the surgeons need to review the 'technicalities' around the surgery not the procedures themselves though they take too much time. It looks that all three are suffering from neuropraxia due to improper/too long application of tourniquet. Nerves are likely to recover without prednisolone.
Regards,
Wim Brandsma
