Subcutaneous Versus Submuscular Anterior Transposition of the Ulnar Nerve for Cubital Tunnel Syndrome
Subcutaneous and submuscular anterior ulnar nerve transposition have been widely used in patients with cubital tunnel syndrome. However, the reliable evidence in favor of 1 of 2 surgical options on clinical improvement remains controversial. To maximize the value of the available literature, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare subcutaneous versus submuscular anterior u...
متن کاملSubcutaneous vs Submuscular Ulnar Nerve Transposition in Moderate Cubital Tunnel Syndrome
BACKGROUND The surgical treatment of Cubital tunnel syndrome (CubTS) is still a matter of debate. No consensus exists about the necessity of anterior transposition of the ulnar nerve after decompression. However, this technique is fairly common in clinical practice. MATERIAL AND METHODOLOGY In the present study we compared the operative technique (incision length, operative time), postoperati...
متن کاملSubcutaneous Anterior Transposition for Treatment of Cubital Tunnel Syndrome: Is This Method Safe and Effective?
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the results from subcutaneous anterior transposition of the cubital nerve for treating cubital tunnel syndrome (CTS) and the influence of prognostic factors such as preoperative McGowan stage, age and duration of symptoms. METHODS 36 patients with CTS who underwent subcutaneous anterior transposition of the cubital nerve between 2006 and 2009 were evaluated after an aver...
متن کاملCubital tunnel syndrome: Simple decompression versus decompression and anterior subcutaneous transposition
Background: The procedure of choice in the surgical treatment of cubital tunnel syndrome remains controversial. The aim of this study is to report the results of simple decompression and decompression with anterior subcutaneous transposition. Methods: A retrospective review (July 2002–January 2007) using the Bishop Score to assess outcome. A total of 102 procedures (91 patients, 11 bilateral) w...
متن کاملEvaluation of etiologic findings in patients with surgery of cubital tunnel syndrome
Background: Cubital tunnel syndrome, a neuropathy of ulnar nerve, is the second most common entrapping syndrome in the upper limb surpassing carpal tunnel syndrome. This syndrome arises from a high pressure decompressing the nerve for a long time. Patients with cubital tunnel syndrome show numbness in the ring and small fingers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the etiology of cubital tunn...
