Muscle herniation in the upper extremity is a rare but recognized phenomenon with a paucity of reports in the current literature. In the majority of cases, the herniation is secondary to trauma, with some of the cases due to muscle hypertrophy and increased intra-compartmental pressure from the forced exertion. Treatment for this condition ranges from nonsurgical, repair, or reconstruction to fasciotomy of the flexor carpi ulnaris fascia. Here, we present a case of flexor carpi ulnaris herniation after an open in situ cubital tunnel release in a 57-year-old male 6 years after initial surgery. The patient’s symptoms did not improve with conservative management, and the patient subsequently underwent endoscopic fasciotomy with resolution of his symptoms and maintenance of his wrist and grip strength. The rationale for the treatment chosen is discussed.

Normally exor carpi ulnaris arises as two heads one from humerus and another from ulna. During the routine dissection of undergraduate medical students a rare variation of exor carpi ulnaris was found. A fully developed additional muscle belly was found on the exor compartment of the left forearm. The additional muscle belly was found medial to exor carpi ulnaris and it had a eshy part and a tendinous part. Fleshy part was coming from ulnar head of exor carpi ulnaris and the tendon was getting inserted to exor retinaculum. There was no separate nerve and blood supply to the accessory muscle bers. Variations in the forearm muscles are of utmost importance both anatomically as well as clinically and may be anticipated to avoid complications during reconstructive surgical procedures.
