Anterior interosseous syndrome.
Four cases of anterior interosseous syndrome are presented. Two patients failed to respond to nonsurgical treatment and were surgically explored. Constricting bands found at surgery were divided, and function returned completely within a few weeks. The other 2 patients were treated nonsurgically, with slow improvement in symptoms.
