Ulnar nerve entrapment at the wrist.
MEDIAN nerve compression at the wrist is common and its treatment by decompression is usually successful. Ulnar nerve entrapment, on the other hand, is uncommon. The ulnar nerve as it enters the hand passes through and divides in the canal of Guyon, into its deep (motor) and superficial (sensory) branch. This ulnarcarpal tunnel is bounded proximally and medially by the pisiform, distally and la...
متن کاملMedian and ulnar nerve conduction studies at the wrist: criterion validity of the NC-stat automated device.
OBJECTIVE To compare results obtained with the NC-stat--an automated nerve testing device--to traditional nerve conduction studies relevant to carpal tunnel syndrome screening. METHODS Thirty-three subjects recruited from patients referred for electrodiagnostic testing were studied. Measurements including the distal motor latency (DML), distal sensory latency (DSL), and median-ulnar latency d...
متن کاملMedian and ulnar nerve compression at the wrist caused by anomalous muscles.
Compression of the median and ulnar nerves at the wrist is frequently encountered. Carpal tunnel syndrome usually occurs without any obvious extrinsic cause; several cases have however been reported caused by anomalous or hypertrophic muscles. A survey of the literature shows that compression neuropathy of the median nerve has been reported in relation with anomalies affecting three muscles: th...
متن کاملMedian and ulnar nerve conduction studies among workers: normative values.
To determine normative values for nerve conduction studies among workers, we selected a subset of 326 workers from 955 subjects who participated in medical surveys in the workplace. The reference cohort was composed exclusively of active workers, in contrast to the typical convenience samples. Nerve conduction measures included bilateral median and ulnar sensory amplitude and latency (onset and...
متن کاملIatrogenic selective lesion of the median nerve at the elbow.
A lesion of the median nerve may occur as a consequence of a compression by a haematoma or for a direct damage of the axons caused by a needle insertion. To date, no investigation reported a very selective lesion of the median nerve at the elbow, with the suffering limited only to the fibres for the first digit. A 53 year-old left-handed violinist underwent an arterial blood gas drawing. The pa...
