Bilateral anomalous course of the ulnar nerve at the wrist causing ulnar and median nerve compression syndrome

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1987
✓ The case of a patient with a bilateral compression syndrome of the ulnar and median nerves at the wrist is described. Both ulnar nerves, which were surgically explored at different times, followed an anomalous course and passed into the canalis carpi side by side with the median nerve. This variation in the course of the ulnar nerve is extremely rare

Atypical carpal tunnel syndrome with compression of the ulnar and median nerves

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1981
✓ Clinical signs of ulnar nerve involvement at the wrist level were found in a 51-year-old man. The electrophysiological changes were indicative of a median nerve involvement in the carpal tunnel. At operation, the compressed ulnar nerve was found in the carpal tunnel, together with the median nerve.

[The ulnar nerve compression syndrome].

Handchirurgie, 1981
The ulnar nerve has to bear a large amount of compression, especially in the cubital tunnel, which can be deducted from the topographic relation of this nerve to the elbow. Apart from tightness of the tunnel, intraarticular changes can also cause compression of the nerve.

The External Compression Syndrome of the Ulnar Nerve at the Cubital Tunnel

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1977
Diagnosis of the cubital tunnel external compression syndrome, and subsequent avoidance of further external pressure, minimizes the possibility of progressive crippling of the hand. The usual clinical features are local tenderness over the cubital tunnel, often accompanied by distal paresthesias, and neurological deficit in the ulnar nerve distribution

Unusual complication of an opposition tendon transfer at the wrist: ulnar nerve compression syndrome

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2004
Restoration of thumb opposition by tendon transfer may be necessary in cases of severe thenar atrophy caused by long-standing carpal tunnel syndrome. Routing the extensor indicis proprius transfer subcutaneously around the ulna to reanimate thumb opposition is an accepted procedure and is considered safe.

Ulnar-Tunnel Syndrome at the Wrist

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1965
Four cases of pressure neuritis of the ulnar nerve in the ulnar tunnel at the wrist have been presented. Ulnar-tunnel syndrome at the wrist is proposed as a name for this symptom complex.The symptoms were mainly pain in the wrist with numbness, tingling, and prickling in the ring and little fingers.

Tunnel Compression Syndromes of Median and Ulnar Nerves

2009
Entrapment means, “to be caught in a trap”. Nerve compression syndromes that are caused by entrapment may thus be treated by surgical decompression increasing the free space surrounding the nerve. In e.g. the carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) it is believed that the median nerve is compressed in the carpal tunnel due to an increased pressure within the ...

[The etiology of ulnar nerve compression syndrome].

Handchirurgie, Mikrochirurgie, plastische Chirurgie : Organ der Deutschsprachigen Arbeitsgemeinschaft fur Handchirurgie : Organ der Deutschsprachigen Arbeitsgemeinschaft fur Mikrochirurgie der Peripheren Nerven und Gefasse : Organ der V..., 1990
A retrospective investigation of the etiology of 132 patients with peripheral ulnar nerve compression was performed. Mainly there was external long-term pressure or compressive lesions near the nerve and disturbances of the osseous structures at the elbow and the wrist.

[Vascular causes of median and ulnar nerve compression syndromes].

Handchirurgie, 1978
From a group of more than 200 patients with median and ulnar nerve compression syndrome three cases of interest are demonstrated in detail. In these cases vascular complications led to acurate events accompanied by grave symptoms. In order to prevent irreversible damage surgical treatment of such cases is indicated as soon as possible.

[Functional mechanisms of the proximal ulnar nerve compression syndrome].

Handchirurgie, 1978
The proximal ulnar compression syndrome when it is not a result of trauma, tumors, inflammatory and degenerative processes, inborn deformations or external pressure, is caused by two mechansims, namely the pinching of the ulnar nerve between the proximal edge of the ligamentous and muscular coverings of the cubital tunnel and of the exit of the nerve ...
