Compressive mononeuropathy of the deep palmar branch of the ulnar nerve in cyclists.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two cyclists developed mononeuropathy of the deep palmar branch of the ulnar nerve due to ulnar nerve compression adjacent to the ulnar tunnel (of Guyon) by prolonged bicycle riding. A modification of hand grip on the bicycle handlebars resulted in rapid recovery in one patient.

متن کاملAccessory Flexor Carpi Ulnaris and Bilaterally Variant Vascular Anatomy of Upper Limb: An Unusual Presentation
We report a rare combination of variations in the upper limb of a human cadaver. Accessory flexor carpi ulnaris with absent palmaris longus was observed in the left forearm during routine dissection of a male cadaver. Variant vascular pattern was observed bilaterally. Brachial artery bifurcated at a higher level. Ulnar artery gave rise to persistent median artery (PMA) which pierced the median ...
متن کاملAn anatomical investigation of the superficial and deep palmar arches.
BACKGROUND The superficial palmar arch (SPA) and deep palmar arch (DPA) provide the dominant vascular supply to the hand. The SPA is considered to be highly variable and can be classified as either complete or incomplete. The simplest definition states that the anastomosis between the vessels contributing to the arch represent a complete arch, while an incomplete arch is described as characteri...
متن کاملCompression of the deep palmar branch of the ulnar nerve. Case report and anatomical study.
Five cases of compression of the deep palmar branch of the ulnar nerve were operated upon and the hiatus released by subperiosteal removal of the pisiform bone. The clinical and electromyographical results after a minimum follow-up of eight months showed an improvement in all cases. The authors stress the importance of accurate electromyographic examination for a correct preoperative diagnosis.
