A rare case of median nerve entrapment after posterior elbow dislocation is reported. Nerve entrapment was both in the healed medial epicondyle fracture and within the elbow joint and we recommend placing this type of entrapment separately in an extended classification of median nerve entrapment following elbow dislocation.

Median nerve entrapment as a consequence of posterior dislocation of elbow is a rare. The diagnosis is usually missed or delayed. We present a case of median nerve entrapment following dislocation of elbow with medial epicondyle fracture in a 12 years old male child. After 10 days of reduction, the child presented with neurological deficit showing median nerve palsy. Nerve conduction study showed total denervation of median nerve. Nerve release was done by breaking the callus around medial epicondyle with neurolysis. Median nerve entrapment after the elbow dislocation is a very rare entity. High index of suspicion and timely intervention is helpful in diagnosing the case and managing with a good functional recovery.

AbstractUlnar/cubital tunnel syndrome is the second most common compressive neuropathy of the upper limb. Permanent location of the ulnar nerve anterior to the medial epicondyle is extremely rare, with only five cases reported in the literature. Using ultrasound elastography and diffusion tensor imaging with fiber tractography, we diagnosed a case in which ulnar nerve entrapment was associated with anterior nerve location. Surgical release confirmed the diagnosis and the patient was symptom free 3 months after surgery.

The chondroepitrochlearis muscle is an extremely rare muscle, arising from the pectoralis major, crossing over the neurovascular bundle in the axilla and inserting into the brachial fascia and medial epicondyle of the humerus. This paper presents the first known neurological complication due to the chondroepitrochlearis muscle.

The chapter presents the typical scenario of ulnar nerve entrapment at the elbow. The clinical picture can mimic pathology of nerve roots, of the brachial plexus, or of the ulnar nerve at different sites. Electrodiagnostic study helps to differentiate ulnar nerve entrapment from radiculopathy and to localize the site of compression, while imaging (ultrasound and MR imaging) are useful adjuncts to clinical examination. Conservative management is recommended for intermittent symptoms and absence of motor involvement. Surgical procedures include in situ, open, or endoscopic decompression and nerve transposition. Subluxation of the nerve over the medial epicondyle and recurrent or persistent neuropathy after in situ decompression are indications for transposition.

AbstractVariant muscle slips from pectoralis major muscle are rare. Among these, the muscle chondro-epitrochlearis is a very rare muscular anomaly. Here, in this report, we describe a similar muscle which had an origin from the lower ribs along with the lower fibres of the pectoralis major muscle, arched across the axilla, and then inserted to the medial epicondyle of humerus. In this report we present a review of literature on this muscle. We also discuss the clinical significance of this muscle since the knowledge of this muscle is important in the differential diagnosis of ulnar nerve entrapment.
