title: Compression of the anterior interosseous nerve after use of a Robert-Jones type bandage for a distal end clavicle fracture: case report.
abstract: There are some controversies in the medical literature about the causes of the anterior interosseous nerve (AIN) compression syndrome. The present case is, to our knowledge, the first reported resulting from an extrinsic compression of the AIN from a Robert-Jones type bandage in a patient with a distal end clavicle fracture.
