The Role of Ultrasound across the Continuum of Care for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common upper limb entrapment neuropathy and a leading cause of pain, functional impairment, and surgical referral. This article demonstrates the central role of ultrasound (US) across the continuum of CTS care, both for confirming the CTS diagnosis and for guiding treatments ranging from perineural injections to

Unusual presentation of multiple nerve entrapment: a case report

The Pan African Medical Journal, 2014
Cubital tunnel syndrome is the most common form of ulnar nerve entrapment and the second most common entrapment neuropathy of the upper extremity after carpal tunnel syndrome. However, bilateral compressive ulnar neuropathy is a rare condition.

Managing Dystonia in Partington Syndrome

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bilateral focal hand dystonia is an almost pathognomonic sign of Partington syndrome, frequently accompanied by intellectual disability and oromotor dyspraxia. However, a few studies have focused on the treatment of this focal dystonia, making patient management uncertain.

Endoscopic Resection of Ulnar Bursa of the Palm: 2 Ulnar Portals Technique

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2023
Ulnar bursa of the hand invaginates the flexor digitorum superficialis and flexor digitorum profundus tendons of the little, ring, long, and index fingers. Distension of this bursa can have an inflammatory or infective cause.

Ulnar Neuropathy in the Distal Ulnar Tunnel [PDF]

Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 1991
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.

The Second Hit Hypothesis in Animal and Human Dystonia: The Role of Peripheral Nerve Trauma and Spinal Cord Injury

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
The “second‐hit” hypothesis proposes that both a genetic predisposition and an environmental insult—such as peripheral nerve trauma or spinal cord injury—are required for dystonia development. This review explores how neuroinflammation and maladaptive plasticity, triggered by nerve and spinal cord injury, contribute to dystonia pathogenesis.

Selective decompression of the ulnar nerve at the arcade of Struthers: A case report

JPRAS Open
The arcade of Struthers is a known compression site in patients with ulnar neuropathy, but its presence has been debated and in case reports it has mainly been described as incidental finding during cubital tunnel surgery.

Normative Ulnar Nerve Conduction Study: Comparison of Two Measurement Methods

Advanced Biomedical Research, 2018
Background: Given the high prevalence rate of ulnar neuropathy and importance of its proper management, to have a baseline information about the normative value of motor nerve conduction of first dorsal interosseous (FDI) muscle and abductor digiti ...

Ulnar neuropathy: evaluation and management [PDF]

Current Reviews in Musculoskeletal Medicine, 2016
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.

Nerve Ultrasound in Patients With Friedreich Ataxia

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Nerve enlargement has been reported in patients with Friedreich ataxia (FRDA). The underlying cause remains unclear, and both inflammatory processes and dysmyelination have been suggested as potential mechanisms. This study was aimed at assessing nerve morphology with high‐resolution ultrasound, to identify and describe ...
