Abstract
Posterior interosseous nerve syndrome is the most frequent syndrome of radial nerve compression, with the arcade of Frohse being the main site of compression. Its symptoms include difficulties in finger and wrist extension with possible radial deviation. Herein, we present a case of posterior interosseous syndrome caused by a schwannoma, a type of neurological tumor.
