1.A 20 yr old presented with weakness and edema of left hand,with h/o cat scratch 4 days
ago..lymph nodes enlarged and non tender...what s the cause?

a) cellulitis
b)cat scratch
c)axillary vein thrombosis

2.patient cannot extend wrist and fingers...all other things normal...lesion...

a)anterior interosseous nerve

b)ulnar nerve
c)radial n
d)posterior interosseous n

A patient who presents with this diagnosis of posterior interosseus syndrome may have a
history of vague proximal posterior forearm pain with no weakness in more mild cases. In
more severe cases, the patient may present with weakness in the wrist and finger
extensors. Because the extensor carpi radialis longus and in some cases the extensor carpi
radialis brevis are innervated before the radial nerve passes into the supinator, there is usually
some sparring of wrist extension. Also because of lack of extensor carpi ulnaris, there may
some radial deviation of the wrist with extension with the remaining innervated ECRL and
ECRB. There will be no sensory loss as this nerve carries motor fibers only. In mild cases
posterior interosseus syndrome may be difficult to delineate from lateral epicondylitis and may
be considered only after a failed resolution of lateral epicondylitis. There will be no changes
with electro diagnostic studies with lateral epicondylitis
