Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Compression neuropathies are a significant source of pain in the upper extremity. Although ulnar tunnel syndrome occurs much less frequently than cubital tunnel syndrome, compression of the nerve at this level is a readily treatable condition. Ulnar tunnel syndrome should be kept in the differential diagnosis when the patient complains of numbness of the ring and small fingers, hand weakness, and pain on the ulnar side of the wrist.
