Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Intermittent occlusion of the ulnar artery developed in a patient causing cramp in her right hand. Both flexion and extension of the wrist completely obstructed bloodflow in the ulnar artery, at a level just proximal to the wrist. At operation, a tight band of antebrachial fascia was found to be the cause of this intermittent arterial occlusion. Surgical release of this fascial band produced complete relief of her symptoms. |
