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 کاملUlnar nerve entrapment complicating radial head excision
Introduction Several mechanisms are involved in ischemia or mechanical compression of ulnar nerve at the elbow. Presentation of case We hereby present the case of a road accident victim, who received a radial head excision for an isolated fracture of the radial head and complicated by onset of cubital tunnel syndrome. This outcome could be the consequence of an iatrogenic valgus of the elbow ...
متن کاملExtended effective electrodiagnosis in ulnar nerve entrapment at the elbow
Background: This study aimed to explore the value of extended motor nerve conduction studies in patients with ulnar nerve entrapment at the elbow (UNE) in order to find the most sensitive and least time-consuming method. We wanted to evaluate the utility of examining both the sensory branch from the fifth finger and the dorsal branch of the ulnar nerve. Further we intended to study the clinical...
متن کاملTherapeutic Management of Hypothenar Hammer Syndrome Causing Ulnar Nerve Entrapment
Introduction. The hypothenar hammer syndrome is a rare traumatic vascular disease of the hand. Method and Materials. We report the case of a 43-years-old man with a painful tumefaction of the left hypothenar region. The ulnar artery appeared thrombosed clinically and radiologically. The patient underwent surgery to resolve the ulnar nerve compression and revascularise the artery. Results. The s...
متن کاملThe electrodiagnosis of ulnar nerve entrapment at the elbow.
Entrapment of the ulnar nerve at the elbow is the second most common focal peripheral neuropathy. Recent advances have facilitated the electrodiagnosis of this common nerve entrapment. The goals of electrodiagnosis are to localize ulnar nerve dysfunction, confirm that the disturbance is confined to the ulnar nerve, and assess the severity of ulnar nerve dysfunction. The goal of this review is t...
