Tunnel Syndrome

Compression neuropathy of the ulnar nerve at the elbow is well-recognised as cubital tunnel syndrome (CuTS). Many causes of ulnar neuropathy at the elbow have been identified. A previously unreported finding of ulnar nerve compression in the cubital tunnel caused by a thrombosed proximal ulnar recurrent artery vena comitans is described.

Elbow Motion

Arthrogryposis is a syndrome of multiple joint contracture and subluxation that is present at birth and is characterized by a nonprogressive disorder. Patients with lack of active elbow motion show the typical elbow motion with passive assistance, such as the trunk-sway and cross-arm techniques. We describe our experience with the treatment of an arthrogryposis patient with cubital tunnel syndrome caused by the passive elbow motion. The ulnar nerve was entrapped by a thick fibrous band at the cubital tunnel, and simple decompression of the ulnar nerve brought the patient a good recovery from the palsy.

The ulnar nerve compressed in the cubital tunnel is called Cubital tunnel syndrome in the clinic.we also found that there are cysts compress the ulnar nerve in cubital tunnel through preoperative ultrasonograhy. This case report is the description of heterotopic cysts that compress the ulnar nerve in our clinical practice.

Abstract Background Various surgical options are used for the treatment of ulnar nerve entrapment at the elbow. In this study, anterior trans-muscular transposition of the ulnar nerve was used for the treatment of cubital tunnel syndrome. Objectives To evaluate the surgical results of anterior trans-muscular transposition technique for the treatment of cubital tunnel syndrome with particular emphasis on clinical outcome. Methods Forty patients with cubital tunnel syndrome were operated using anterior trans-muscular transposition technique. Patients were classified into post-operative clinical outcome grades according to the Wilson & Krout criteria, and they were followed up by visual analog scale (VAS), the Disability of Arm Shoulder and Hand (DASH) questionnaire, electrophysiological study, and post-operative clinical evaluation. Results Forty patients with cubital tunnel syndrome who underwent anterior trans-muscular transposition of the ulnar nerve show a significant clinical improvement at 24 months post-surgery regarding visual analog scale (VAS), the Disability of Arm Shoulder and Hand (DASH) questionnaire, electrophysiological study, and the Wilson & Krout grading as 87.5% of the patients recorded excellent and good outcome. Conclusion Anterior transmuscular transposition of the ulnar nerve is a safe and effective treatment for ulnar nerve entrapment at the elbow.
