[Radial nerve paralysis in congenital angioleiomyoma].
An isolated paralysis of the radial nerve in a newborn was reported. The displaced growth of the histologically proved angioleiomyoma caused a circumferential compression with subsequent atrophy of the nerve (Fig. 4). During operative treatment of the tumor, the damaged part of the nerve was resected, too. In a second stage the defect in the nerve was closed by suralis grafts. Possibly due to scar adhesions a good result was not obtained.
