Case Report: Ultrasound-Guided Nerve Mobilization for Posterior Interosseous Nerve Palsy

A single-case clinical report by Tomonori Hayashi, published on figshare in May 2026. The report details the clinical course, ultrasound-based evaluation, and rehabilitation of a patient with nontraumatic posterior interosseous nerve palsy associated with a ganglion cyst. It includes serial ultrasound assessments using techniques like particle image velocimetry (PIV) to monitor nerve morphology and motion.

Use Cases

• Analyzing the clinical progression of nerve palsy based on serial ultrasound evaluations described in the report.
• Studying the application of ultrasound-guided nerve mobilization techniques for rehabilitation.
• Investigating the relationship between ganglion cysts and nerve compression in the radial tunnel.
• Evaluating quantitative ultrasound metrics like nerve cross-sectional area and flattening ratio for treatment monitoring.

Strengths

• Provides a detailed, longitudinal case study with serial ultrasound assessments.
• Includes specific quantitative evaluation methods such as particle image velocimetry (PIV).
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The dataset is a single-case report (217.3 KB), representing a very limited scope.
