Management of ulnar nerve injuries [PDF]
Ulnar nerve injuries are common in young people. When there is a delay in the diagnosis and surgical management, the results are usually poor and can be permanent. Nerve grafting procedures were carried out in 85 patients with ulnar nerve injuries and 30 patients with both ulnar and median nerve injuries between 1981 and 1992.
