Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2012
Compression of the ulnar nerve at the elbow, or cubital tunnel syndrome, is the second most common peripheral nerve compression syndrome in the upper extremity. Diagnosis is made through a good history and physical examination. Electrodiagnostic testing can confirm the diagnosis and severity of injury to the nerve.

The Management of Cubital Tunnel Syndrome
The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2015Symptomatic cubital tunnel syndrome is a condition that frequently prompts patients to seek hand surgical care. Although cubital tunnel syndrome is readily diagnosed, achieving complete symptom resolution remains challenging. This article reviews related anatomy, clinical presentation, and current management options for cubital tunnel syndrome with an ...

Hand Surgery, 2003
During a 15-year period, 145 patients presenting with cubital tunnel syndrome were operated upon. They are divided into two groups: (1) Primary tunnel syndrome — 27 cases (18.6%), with a "pure" past history, and (2) secondary — 118 cases (81.4%) with the lesion occurring after a known causative event.

The treatment of the cubital tunnel syndrome
The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1984Treatment by in situ release, submuscular transposition, and anterior subcutaneous transposition have all been reported to produce satisfactory results for ulnar neuropathy secondary to the cubital tunnel syndrome. A prospective study was done to determine which preoperative clinical and electrical factors and surgical approaches in patients with ulnar

Ulnar nerve compression at the elbow, specifically the cubital tunnel, is the second most common upper extremity compression neuropathy. Many patients presenting with compression symptoms will subsequently undergo surgical intervention. We review the open surgical treatment of cubital tunnel syndrome and review the expected postoperative imaging ...

Endoscopic Release of the Cubital Tunnel
Hand Clinics, 2014It is safe to say that in situ decompression of the ulnar nerve in cubital tunnel syndrome has been demonstrated to achieve equivalent functional results when compared with more elaborate techniques, such as decompression with nerve transposition. The evolution toward procedures associated with less patient morbidity is reflected by the introduction of

MINIMALIST CUBITAL TUNNEL TREATMENT
Neurosurgery, 2009The surgical treatment of cubital tunnel syndrome by various techniques is often met with disappointing results. An optimal treatment is not agreed upon. The authors propose a collection of techniques which they believe optimizes outcome and minimizes iatrogenic injuries.A combination of a novel skin incision which minimizes scar and iatrogenic ...

Cubital Tunnel Syndrome Pathophysiology
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1998Cubital tunnel syndrome is the second most common peripheral compression neuropathy. The unique anatomic relationships of the ulnar nerve at the elbow place it at risk for injury. Normally with elbow range of motion, the ulnar nerve is subjected to compression, traction, and frictional forces.

Endoscopic Cubital Tunnel Release
The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2010A minimally invasive endoscopic approach has been successfully applied to surgical treatment of cubital tunnel syndrome. This procedure allows for smaller incisions with faster recovery time. This article details relevant surgical anatomy, indications, contraindications, surgical technique, complications, and postoperative management.

Entrapment of the ulnar nerve is most frequently observed in the cubital tunnel, and is observed more frequently in males and most often on the right side. It may occur bilaterally, at times associated with diabetes or alcoholism, and in some instances may occur years after any precipitating trauma. This has been referred to as a “tardy ulnar paralysis.
