Lifestyle risk factors for ulnar neuropathy and ulnar neuropathy‐like symptoms

Muscle & Nerve, 2013
ABSTRACTIntroduction: We examined whether lifestyle factors differ between patients with ulnar neuropathy confirmed by electroneurography (ENG) and those with ulnar neuropathy‐like symptoms with normal ulnar nerve ENG. Methods: Among patients examined by ENG for suspected ulnar neuropathy, we identified 546 patients with ulnar neuropathy and 633 ...

Postsurgical Ulnar Neuropathy

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1974
To the Editor.— I read in The Journal of March 11, 1974, a letter from Drs. Murphy and Devers on the prevention of postsurgical ulnar neuropathy (227:1123, 1974). I also read, in the British Medical Journal of March 1973, "Cubital Tunnel External Compression Syndrome" by Dr. Thomas Wadsworth and Dr. John Williams.

Ulnar Neuropathy in Bicyclists

The Physician and Sportsmedicine, 1981
In brief: A common overuse injury associated with bicycling is ulnar neuropathy (handlebar palsy). The cyclist will notice the onset of numbness, weakness, and loss of coordination in one or both hands, usually after several days of cycling. Several corrective measures are suggested, including well-padded bicycling gloves, padded handlebars, correct ...

Ulnar Neuropathy After Median Sternotomy

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1993
Ulnar neuropathy is a known complication of median sternotomy surgery, and its precise cause is not clear. The authors hypothesize that a "double-crush" phenomenon caused by intraoperative compression of the brachial plexus occurs in a patient with preexisting, previously undiagnosed slowing of ulnar nerve conduction.

Ulnar Neuropathies In Rheumatoid Arthritis

Hand, 1978
Summary A loss of functional motor axons in the median and ulnar nerves occurred in half of thirty-three patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Weakness of small hand muscles may predispose to the development of ulnar deviation of the fingers in patients with joint disease at the radio-ulnar and metacarpophalangeal joints.

Ulnar Neuropathy in Medical Patients

Anesthesiology, 2000
ANESTHETIZED patients who undergo surgical procedures may develop ulnar neuropathy. 1-6 Although the mechanism of ulnar neuropathy in the perioperative setting is often unclear, improper positioning or padding of the upper extremity during surgery is sometimes implicated 7,8 ; however, there is little direct evidence to implicate improper ...

ULNAR NEUROPATHY AT THE ELBOW

Neurologic Clinics, 1999
Among the entrapment neuropathies, ulnar neuropathy at the elbow is second only to carpal tunnel syndrome in frequency; however, diagnosis and management are considerably more difficult in ulnar lesions than in carpal tunnel syndrome. Electrodiagnosis is the most important means of identifying and localizing ulnar neuropathies at the elbow, but even ...

Ulnar Neuropathy in Bicycle Riders

Archives of Neurology, 1975
Three patients, one of whom is described in detail, developed ulnar neuropathy following prolonged bicycle riding, with compression of the ulnar nerve at the level of the ulnar canal at the wrist.

Postoperative Ulnar Neuropathy

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1979
Although compressive ulnar neuropathy developing during surgical procedures under general anesthesia has been recognized, clinical and electrophysiological features of this neuropathy have been incompletely described. During the past two years, we have seen eight patients with this complication, mainly following intra-abdominal or intrathoracic ...

Ulnar Compressive Neuropathies

2017
There are three different neuropathies defined by where the ulnar nerve is compressed that are much less common than cubital tunnel. Nerve conduction is used to confirm diagnosis of cubital tunnel, defined as symptomatic ulnar nerve dysfunction at the level of the elbow; this is treated either nonoperatively or operatively depending on severity.
