Burner Syndrome

The Physician and Sportsmedicine (1996)

Susan J. Nissen Edward R. Laskowski Thomas D. Rizzo

In briefBurner syndrome—brachial plex us injury—is common in contact sports, especially on the football field, but not always benign. Our case report describes a 15-year-old football player who suffered burner symptoms that resolved quickly but led to shoulder weakness and neck pain a few days later. Detailed serial clinical examinations are imperative for proper classification of burner injuries. Cervical root lesions, shoulder injuries, and other plexus or nerve involvement must be excluded. Rehabilitation includes physical modalities and range-of-motion, stretching, and strengthening exercises for cervical, shoulder, and elbow muscles. Prevention measures include preseason strengthening exercises and protective devices.

Stent for Life: Egypt

MD Conference Express (2012)

Thomas D. Rizzo Mohamed Sobhy

Almost 2 years ago, Egypt was chosen to be 1 of 10 countries to participate in the international Stent for Life (SFL) Initiative. The mission of the SFL Initiative in Egypt is to improve delivery and patient access to the life-saving indications of percutaneous coronary intervention, thereby reducing the mortality and morbidity of patients suffering from acute coronary syndromes.

Pericardial Teratoma: An Uncommon Masquerader

MD Conference Express (2012)

Thomas D. Rizzo Sunil Lalla

Teratomas are benign germ-cell tumors that occur in infants through young adults. They contain cell types from at least 2 of 3 primitive germ cell layers. Ectodermal elements often predominate (hair, skin, sweat gland, or tooth-like structures), as well as mesodermal (fat, cartilage, smooth muscle, bone) or endodermal (respiratory and intestinal epithelium) elements. Pericardial teratomas most commonly arise in the anterior superior mediastinum. These tumors usually are diagnosed in infants and children <10 months of age at a rate of 5 to 6 per 10,000 children. They are exceptionally rare in adults.

Subcutaneous Trigger Point Causing Radiating Postsurgical Pain

Archives of Dermatology (2009)

Ali Hendi Peter T. Dorsher Thomas D. Rizzo Lawrence E. Gibson

Background

The immediate onset of severe postoperative pain, especially pain radiating distant from the incision site, is uncommon after dermatologic surgery.

Observation

A 37-year-old woman undergoing excision of a nevus from the left side of her midback had an exquisitely tender spot along the incision lines. This tender spot was hard to anesthetize and was clinically visible, after excision of the nevus, as a fibrous bundle in the subcutaneous plane. She presented in the immediate postoperative period with referred (distant) pain extending down the ipsilateral arm that was caused by a thoracic subcutaneous trigger point.

Conclusion

Surgeons and pain management specialists should be aware of this potential cause of immediate postoperative pain to prevent unnecessary medical or surgical interventions in the postoperative period.
