Dermatofibroma is a benign tumor of dermal fibroblasts frequently observed in limbs. A case of dermatofibroma in the forearm is presented, with a strong and diffuse expression of vimentin and neurofilament. No neural, schwannian, endoneurial or perineurial elements were demonstrated with immunohisto chemistry.
Keywords:

Entrapment neuropathies of the upper and lower extremities are commonly seen in Orthopedics consultations. In these evaluations, it is important to understand the usefulness of electrodiagnostic (EMG/NCS) studies for supporting these diagnoses.
This is a review of the most common nerve entrapments of the upper and lower
extremities and the critical EMG/NCS data.

Objectives/Interrogation: The goal of wrist fractures remains anatomic reduction. In literature is reported a considerable number of injuries of inter-carpal ligaments and Triangular Fibro Cartilage Complex associated (TFCC) to wrist fractures that were not
detected or were underestimated using only intraoperative fluoroscopy.
