Peripheral compression lesions of the ulnar nerve.
ANATOMY The anatomical course of the ulnar nerve renders it particularly vulnerable at the elbow and at the wrist. At both sites the nerve or its terminal branches pass through narrow canals in which small space-occupying lesions may exert pressure. As the nerve crosses the elbow it passes from the extensor aspect of the arm into the flexor mass of the forearm, running between the two heads of ...
متن کاملTraumatic dislocation of the pisiform: a case report.
Isolated pisiform dislocation is rare. We present one such case in a 20-year-old man occurring after a direct injury to the wrist. After an initial delay in diagnosis and unsuccessful closed reduction, he underwent resection of the pisiform. At 12-month follow-up, he had full range of movement of the wrist and no residual pain.
متن کاملSynovial Chondromatosis of the Elbow With Asymptomatic Ulnar Nerve Compression.
Primary synovial chondromatosis is a rare, benign, proliferative disease of hyaline cartilaginous bodies within the synovium of joints. We report a rare case of primary synovial chondromatosis diffusely affecting the ulnohumeral joint causing pain and motion limitations with extrusion into the cubital tunnel and compressing the ulnar nerve but without any preoperative signs or symptoms of ulnar...
متن کاملSonographic diagnosis of recurrent ulnar nerve compression by ganglion cysts.
Lesions of the ulnar nerve are the most common causes of paralysis of a peripheral nerve.1,2 The cubital tunnel (or sulcus ulnaris) syndrome is the second most frequent compression syndrome of the upper extremities after the carpal tunnel syndrome.3,4 We report our findings in a patient who suffered from cubital tunnel syndrome and underwent subcutaneous anterior transposition, a surgical proce...
متن کاملIsolated Compression of Deep Palmar Branch of Ulnar Nerve by a Midpalmar Ganglion: A Rare Case Report
Introduction UN lesions in the wrist and hand can cause a variety of different clinical findings, depending on precise location. Findings might range from a pure sensory deficit to pure motor syndromes with weakness that may or may not involve the hypothenar muscles. This depends on whether the lesion involves the main trunk, the sensory branch only, or the deep palmar branch at different sites...
