Validity of computed tomographic measurements and morphological comparison of cubital tunnel in idiopathic cubital tunnel syndrome [PDF]
Background Ulnar neuropathy is a common reason for referral to hand surgeons, and 10 to 30% of cubital tunnel syndrome (CuTS) is idiopathic. We hypothesized that the cause of idiopathic CuTS is in the bony structure.

Ulnar nerve double crush by entrapment of a peri-cubital tunnel ganglion cyst and cubital tunnel: a case report [PDF]
Background Double crush syndrome (DCS) is a relatively rare nerve compression syndrome among peripheral nerve compression diseases. However, ulnar nerve double entrapment caused by peri-cubital tunnel ganglion cysts has been rarely reported.

The cubital tunnel: a radiologic and histotopographic study [PDF]
SummaryEntrapment of the ulnar nerve at the elbow is the second most common compression neuropathy in the upper limb. The present study evaluates the anatomy of the cubital tunnel. Eighteen upper limbs were analysed in unembalmed cadavers using ultrasound examination in all cases, dissection in nine cases, and microscopic study in nine cases.
