Simple decompression of the ulnar nerve for cubital tunnel syndrome.
OBJECTIVE Cubital tunnel syndrome is the second most common entrapment neuropathy of the upper extremity. Although many different operative techniques have been introduced, none of them have been proven superior to others. Simple cubital tunnel decompression has numerous advantages, including simplicity and safety. We present our experience of treating cubital tunnel syndrome with simple decomp...
متن کاملCubital tunnel syndrome: Simple decompression versus decompression and anterior subcutaneous transposition
Background: The procedure of choice in the surgical treatment of cubital tunnel syndrome remains controversial. The aim of this study is to report the results of simple decompression and decompression with anterior subcutaneous transposition. Methods: A retrospective review (July 2002–January 2007) using the Bishop Score to assess outcome. A total of 102 procedures (91 patients, 11 bilateral) w...
متن کاملModified Simple Decompression of Ulnar Nerve in Treat-ment of Cubital Tunnel Syndrom
BACKGROUND There are two main surgical approaches, simple ulnar nerve decompression at the elbow, and anterior transposition of the nerve in treatment of cubital tunnel syndrome. Both techniques were reported in literature in details with similar reported success rates. Here, we present a modified simple de-compression surgical technique in treatment of cubital tunnel syndrome. METHODS Fifty...
متن کاملModified simple decompression in the treatment of cubital tunnel syndrome: avoiding ulnar nerve subluxation.
Objective In this study, we propose a modification to the simple decompression technique that contains the ulnar nerve in the cubital fossa, thus preventing subluxation during forearm flexion movements. Methods Five consecutive patients with leprosy-associated cubital tunnel syndrome underwent surgery with the modified technique between July 2011 and October 2012. Results The most common sy...
