Treatment for ulnar neuropathy at the elbow [PDF]
Ulnar neuropathy at the elbow is the second most common entrapment neuropathy after carpal tunnel syndrome. Treatment may be conservative or surgical but optimal management remains controversial. This is an update of a review first published in 2010.To determine the effectiveness and safety of conservative and surgical treatments in ulnar neuropathy at

Ulnar Neuropathy at the Wrist [PDF]
A case of ulnar nerve compression at the wrist within Guyon's canal is reported. The clinical presentation initially appeared consistent with an ulnar nerve entrapment at the elbow. The true diagnosis of an ulnar sensorimotor nerve lesion occurring within the canal of Guyon was made electrophysiologically.

At the elbow, the ulnar nerve (UN) may be the site of a static compression (by the cubital tunnel retinaculum and Osborne's ligament between the two heads of the flexor carpi ulnaris), or a dynamic compression, especially when the nerve is unstable (subluxation/dislocation outside the ulnar groove).

Ulnar neuropathy: evaluation and management [PDF]
Ulnar neuropathy is commonly encountered, both acutely after elbow trauma and in the setting of chronic compression neuropathy. Careful clinical evaluation and discerning evaluation of electrodiagnostic studies are helpful in determining the prognosis of recovery with nonoperative and operative management.

Ulnar Neuropathy in the Distal Ulnar Tunnel [PDF]
A brief anatomical review of the ulnar nerve and areas of ulnar nerve entrapment is discussed. The importance of the dorsal cutaneous nerve is presented with regard to localizing a lesion to the ulnar nerve in the forearm. A classification system is described for ulnar entrapment that occurs distal to the wrist.

Pressures recorded in ulnar neuropathy [PDF]
The pressure between the ulnar nerve and the arcade bridging the two heads of the flexor carpi ulnaris muscle was recorded peroperatively in ten patients with electrophysiologically confirmed ulnar neuropathy at the elbow. At rest, with the elbow extended, pressures ranged from 0 to 19 mm Hg but increased in flexion and during isometric contraction of ...

ABSTRACT Regeneration after peripheral nerve injury is often insufficient for functional recovery. Postoperative electrical stimulation (PES) following injury and repair significantly improves clinical outcomes; recently, conditioning electrical stimulation (CES), delivered before nerve injury, has been introduced as a candidate for clinical ...

Clinical characteristics of anti‐neurofascin 155 antibody‐positive autoimmune nodopathy in children
Pediatric anti‐neurofascin 155 antibody autoimmune nodopathy was uncommon, featuring distal limb weakness with sensory symptoms. Cerebrospinal fluid protein levels were elevated, and neuroimaging revealed nerve root thickening. As intravenous immunoglobulin was ineffective, early immunosuppressive therapy was recommended.
