title: Upper arm radial nerve palsy after muscular effort: report of three cases.
abstract: Three healthy men were engaged in continuous repetitive arm exercise when a sudden forceful contraction and stretch of the arm muscles led to a delayed upper arm radial nerve palsy. Radial nerve "entrapment" at the lateral head of the triceps muscles is a recognizable occupational nerve injury.
