Evaluation of the ulnar nerve with shear-wave elastography: a potential sonographic method for the diagnosis of ulnar neuropathy [PDF]
Purpose This study was designed to verify whether shear-wave elastography (SWE) can be used to differentiate ulnar neuropathy at the cubital tunnel from asymptomatic ulnar nerve or medial epicondylitis.

Ulnar neuropathy at the elbow is the second most common compressive neuropathy. Less common, although similarly disabling, are ulnar neuropathies above the elbow, at the forearm, and the wrist, which can present with different combinations of intrinsic hand muscle weakness and sensory loss.

Retrospective study on the impact of ulnar nerve dislocation on the pathophysiology of ulnar neuropathy at the elbow [PDF]
Introduction High resolution ultrasonography (US) has been used for diagnosis and evaluation of entrapment peripheral neuropathy. Ulnar neuropathy at the elbow (UNE) is the second most common focal entrapment neuropathy.

The red flags of ulnar neuropathy in leprosy. [PDF]
The diagnosis of pure neural leprosy is more challenging because patients share characteristics with other common pathologies, such as ulnar compression, which should be taken into consideration for differential diagnosis.

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).
