Abstract：

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of in situ ulnar nerve decompression at the cubital tunnel via a small incision assisted with electromyography localization and discuss the surgical indications.Methods Twelve patients who were diagnosed with idiopathic cubital tunnel syndrome (CuTS) without intrinsic muscle atrophy and elbow deformity were involved in the study.Before the operation, short-segment nerve conduction test (SSCT) was carried out.The exact compression site was determined by the ＞ 50%reduction in amplitude or ＞ 0.5 ms lengthening in latency of action potentials recorded upon stimulation of the ulnar nerve around the elbow at 1 cm intervals.An in situ ulnar nerve release at the compression site was performed.Compression of the ulnar nerve was observed and documented to verify the accuracy of pre-operative SSCT localization.Results Intraoperative findings confirmed that lesions were located from 3 cm above to 1 cm below the medial epicondyle, which coincided with the compression sites determined by SSCT.All the patients reported alleviation of hand discomfort postoperatively.Follow-up at 3 months postoperatively showed that paresthesia in the distribution of the ulnar nerve in the hand disappeared.Pinprick sensation recovered.There was no subjective or measurable weakness in pinch or grip strength and no clumsiness or loss of coordination.Claw deformity disappeared.Six months after the surgery, the strength of abductor digiti minimi returned to normal.Two-point discrimination of the little finger was 5.0 mm on average.Nerve conduction velocity returned to ＞ 45.0 m/s.Action potential amplitude increased and SSCT yielded no positive findings.Mild atrophy was reversed one year postoperatively.Elbow flexion test, Tinel' s sign and Froment' s test were all negative.Conclusion In situ ulnar nerve decompression via a small incision assisted with electromyography localization is a suitable procedure for certain CuTS cases.     

正中神经-尺神经交通支解剖、电生理及临床意义

尺神经损伤是成人周围神经损伤中最常见者,损伤后的功能恢复不佳.正中神经-尺神经交通支是正中神经、尺神经之间的连接神经.解剖、电生理研究表明神经纤维可在正中神经和尺神经之间交叉支配.大部分研究证实正中神经-尺神经交通支的存在使临床正中神经、尺神经损伤症状不典型,尤其是在与腕管综合征、肘管综合征相关时.正中神经-尺神经交通支的发生有遗传性和种系相关性.电生理与解剖研究结果尚未完全一致,但从理论上都认为,明确该交通支在人群中的分布,对减少误诊,避免不必要的手术及其并发症,作出正确的预后判断有重要意义.

Tendon transfers for radial, median, and ulnar nerve injuries: current surgical techniques

Tendon transfers are performed predominantly to restore hand function or balance due to injuries of the radial, median, and ulnar nerves. Current surgical techniques for the most common tendon transfers for reconstruction of radial, median, and ulnar nerve palsies are demonstrated. These techniques can also be applied to restore flexion and extension of the fingers and thumb after injuries to the extrinsic flexor and extensor muscles and tendons of the forearm or intrinsic muscles of the hand.

Reconstruction of high ulnar nerve lesions by distal double median to ulnar nerve transfer

Ulnar nerve lesions around the elbow often carry an unfavorable prognosis due to insufficient sensory and intrinsic muscle recovery. We present a series of 7 cases in which restoration of ulnar innervated intrinsic muscles of the hand and of skin sensibility was achieved. This was accomplished by a distal connection of the anterior interosseous nerve and the superficial sensory palmar branch of the median nerve to the motor and sensory components of the ulnar nerve at Guyon's canal. The length of the follow-up period ranged from 1 to 3.5 years. Results were graded by the Highet-Zachary scale. Good motor and sensory recovery was obtained in 6 cases; only return of protective sensation occurred in the remaining case.

Ulnar to median nerve anastomosis in the palm (Riches-Cannieu anastomosis)

This report describes an unusual case of pure bilateral ulnar innervation of the thenar and hypothenar muscles of the hands. The patient was a healthy 36-year-old woman who presented with neck pain. Examination and routine laboratory investigation findings were normal, but on electroneuromyography ulnar to median nerve anastomosis of the motor fibers in the palm was detected bilaterally. However, there was no anastomosis between the sensory fibers. On investigation of focal neuropathy the anomaly known as Riches-Cannieu anastomosis may surprise the electroneuromyographer and change the clinical signs and symptoms. It should be suspected when the hand muscles are clinically intact in the presence of a severe median nerve lesion in the forearm. In this case, a complete lesion of the median nerve at the forearm might erroneously be interpreted as a partial lesion of the median nerve. In every surgical intervention to the hand, this anomaly should be kept in mind and should be investigated electrophysiologically. Received: 25 June 1998 / Accepted: 19 August 1998     

End-to-side repair of thenar motor branch of median nerve to the ulnar nerve after excision of the median nerve neurofibroma

A 13-year-old male patient suffering for the past 5 years with a gradually swelling and occasionally painful volar side of right forearm, presented to our clinic without any trauma. An end-to-side nerve repair performed between the ulnar nerve and thenar motor branch, and second common digital nerve to the digital nerve of the first finger for mend the sensorial, digital, and motor impairments related to the median nerve associated plexiform neurofibroma that occured after the excision of the tumor.
