Summary
Background: The arcade of Struthers has been described as possible cause of compression of the ulnar nerve but several authors and our
own experience have doubt cast on its existence. We, therefore, performed an anatomical study to determine whether or not
the arcade of Struthers exists.
Methods: Ten arms from fresh frozen cadavers were dissected. Special attention was given to the fascial layers of the medial aspect
of the upper arm and the medial intermuscular septum and their relation ships to the ulnar nerve.
Findings: An arcade of Struthers was not found in any specimen.
Interpretation: The arcade of Struthers does not exist and is not an anatomical structure, but a man-made construct.

Thirty nine cadaver elbows were dissected and the branching of the ulnar nerve, as well as the cubital tunnel and adjacent potential sites of nerve compression were studied. An arcade of Struthers was present in 26 specimens and Osborne's ligament was present in all specimens. A discrete flexor pronator aponeurosis overlying the ulnar nerve was present in 17 specimens. An average of one (range, 0-3) capsular nerve branches were noted. These originated an average 7 mm proximal (range, 45 mm proximal to 24 mm distal) to the medial epicondyle. An average of three (range, 1-6) motor branches to the flexor carpi ulnaris muscle were noted, and one of these originated proximal to the medial epicondyle in two specimens. Significant variation was noted in the capsular and motor branching of the ulnar nerve. Care must be taken to identify the motor branches of the ulnar nerve when performing a transposition. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of locating the ulnar nerve compression sites and guiding the small incision so as to decompress the ulnar nerve in situ on the elbow by high‐frequency ultrasound before operation.MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on 56 patients who underwent ultrasound‐assisted in situ decompression for cubital tunnel syndrome from May 2018 to August 2019. The patients'' average age was 51.13 ± 7.35 years, mean duration of symptoms was 6.51 ± 1.96 months, and mean postoperative follow‐up was 6.07 ± 0.82 months. Nine patients had Dellon''s stage mild, 39 had stage moderate, and eight had stage severe. Ultrasound and electromyography were completed in all patients before operation. The presence of ulnar nerve compressive lesion, the specific location, and the reason and extent of compression were determined by ultrasound. A small incision in situ surgery was given to decompress the ulnar nerve according to the pre‐defined compressive sites.ResultsAll patients underwent in situ decompression. The compression sites around the elbow were as follows: two in the arcade of Struthers, one in the medial intermuscular septum, four in the anconeus epitrochlearis muscle, five beside the cyst of the proximal flexor carpi ulnaris (FCU), and the remaining 44 cases were all from the compression between Osborne''s ligament to the two heads of the FCU. The compression localizations diagnosed by ultrasound were confirmed by operations. Preoperative ultrasound confirmed no ulnar nerve subluxation in all cases. The postoperative outcomes were satisfactory. There was no recurrence or aggravation of symptoms in this group of patients according to the modified Bishop scoring system; results showed that 43 cases were excellent, 10 were good, and three were fair.ConclusionsHigh‐frequency ultrasound can accurately and comprehensively evaluate the ulnar nerve compression and the surrounding tissues, thus providing significant guidance for the precise minimally invasive treatment of ulnar nerve compression. 相似文献

Ulnar nerve compression at the elbow is commonly accepted as the second most frequent compressive peripheral neuropathy. The unique anatomic location of the ulnar nerve directly posterior to the medial epicondyle at the elbow places it at risk for injury. With normal motion of the elbow, the ulnar nerve is subjected to compression, traction, and frictional forces. Compression can occur at any of the 5 sites that begin proximally at the arcade of Struthers and end distally where the nerve exits the flexor carpi ulnaris in the forearm. Initial treatment of compressive neuropathy is nonoperative, usually consisting of rest, modification, and/or restriction of elbow or wrist movement. If symptoms persist, especially when accompanied by muscle weakness, surgery is usually indicated. Surgical options include decompression in situ, medial epicondylectomy, transposition of the ulnar nerve (subcutaneous, intramuscular, or submuscular), and/or a combination of these procedures. Careful decompression with a subtotal medial epicondylectomy is a valuable procedure that allows decompression at all levels with minimal risk of devascularizing the nerve or creating elbow instability. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To investigate the anatomic relationships of the posterior antebrachial cutaneous nerve (PABCN) to anatomic landmarks on the lateral side of the elbow. METHODS: The PABCN was explored in 30 cadaveric upper extremities. Distances were noted from easily identifiable structures including the lateral epicondyle, the lateral intermuscular septum, and the radial nerve. RESULTS: The path of the PABCN follows the spiral groove initially, diverging as the radial nerve pierces the lateral intermuscular septum. The PABCN emerges from the posterior compartment through a hiatus in the deep fascia at a mean of 6.6 cm proximal to the lateral epicondyle and passes a mean of 2.1 cm anterior to the lateral epicondyle. CONCLUSIONS: The anatomic relationships determined in this study should enable the surgeon to avoid injuring the PABCN when performing surgery in the lateral elbow region. 相似文献

Reports of ulnar nerve injury as a result of elbow arthroscopy are rare in the literature. We report a case of ulnar nerve injury following arthroscopic debridement and retrograde drilling of the capitulum in a patient with symptomatic osteochondritis dissecans. The standard location of proximal medial portal placement is 2 cm proximal to the medial epicondyle at the level of the medial intermuscular septum. In this location, the ulnar nerve is protected from injury by the medial intermuscular septum. Extending this placement more proximally may negate this protection, leaving the nerve more susceptible to injury. 相似文献

The superficial peroneal nerve (SPN) provides fundamental motor and sensory innervation to the leg and foot. A variety of surgical procedures is performed in the vicinity of this nerve, requiring that the surgeon be familiar with its specific anatomy. We dissected 111 legs to define the anatomic position of the SPN and found that the nerve had 4 distinct variations in location. In 77 (69.4%) specimens, the nerve coursed within the lateral compartment of the leg, while in 18 (16.2%) of the legs, the nerve split and contained branches in both the lateral and anterior compartments. The nerve in 7 (6.3%) legs was found within the intermuscular septum, and in 9 (8.1%) of the specimens, the SPN traveled only within the anterior compartment. These results confirm 4 anatomic variants of the SPN, which will aid surgeons in locating the nerve in the lateral aspect of the leg. 相似文献

We describe a patient who presented with dystonia of her small finger secondary to entrapment neuropathy of the ulnar nerve
at the elbow. Pre operative electrophysiological studies suggested that the locus of entrapment was located proximal to the
medial epicondyle. This was confirmed intraoperatively by the presence of a thickened and prominent arcade of Struthers. Surgical
decompression resulted in a rapid and dramatic improvement of the dystonic pattern as well as an improvement in nerve conduction.
A review of literature has not revealed any other reports of such a clear cut association between ulnar nerve entrapment and
non task-specific focal hand dystonia. 相似文献

31 cadaver arms have been dissected to study the variations in the anatomy of the muscles and fibrous arches which might cause compression of the median nerve in the forearm. Pronator teres always had a superficial head and usually a deep head. Flexor digitorum superficialis varied greatly in its site of origin. The median nerve might be crossed by two, one or no fibro-aponeurotic arches. Gantzer's muscle, an accessory head of flexor pollicis longus, was present in 45% of cadavers. No ligament of Struthers was found. Possible sites and causes of nerve compression are discussed. 相似文献

Three surgically verified cases of median nerve entrapment at and above the elbow are reported: one involved a compression of the nerve beneath the Struthers ligament in absence of supracondylar bony spur, and two concerned a compression beneath the lacertus fibrosus bicipitis (aponeurosis musculi bicipitalis brachii). Of the two latter cases, the first entrapment was caused by a hematome and the second the nerve was found to be entrapped between the lactertus and an underlying hypertrophic brachial muscle. The compression mechanisms and clinical and electromyographic findings are presented. 相似文献

We describe the acute development of ulnar nerve compression following carpal tunnel release in a patient with an accessory palmaris longus muscle. Although anomalous muscles in the wrist are relatively common and may produce ulnar nerve compression, this particular occurrence following carpal tunnel release has not been previously described in the literature. We theorize that the compression of the ulnar nerve proximal to Guyon's canal was caused by increased tension along the long axis of the anomalous accessory palmaris longus muscle as a consequence of transverse carpal ligament division. 相似文献

Several open and endoscopic techniques for the surgical treatment of ulnar nerve entrapment at the elbow (cubital tunnel syndrome) have been described that provide decompression with or without anterior transposition. Based on our experience with US-guided decompression for carpal tunnel syndrome in our department, we developed a similar surgical technique for the decompression of the ulnar nerve at the elbow. Using sixteen cadaver upper limbs, we performed decompression of all the structures possibly responsible for ulnar nerve compression at the elbow. The structures involved were Struthers’ arcade, the cubital tunnel retinaculum, Osborne's fascia and Amadio-Beckenbaugh's arcade. The procedure was followed by anatomical dissection to confirm complete sectioning of the compressive structures, absence of iatrogenic vascular or nervous injuries and absence of nerve dislocation or instability. There were no remaining compressive structures after the release procedure. There was no iatrogenic damage to the nerves and no nerve dislocation was observed during elbow flexion or extension. In 3.4% cases, a thin superficial layer of one or more of the identified structures remained but these did not appear to compress the nerve based on US imaging. Using ultrasonographic visualization of the nerve and compressive structures is easy. Each procedure can be tailored according to the nerve compression sites. Our cadaveric study shows the feasibility of an US-guided percutaneous surgical release for ulnar nerve entrapment. 相似文献

Two cases of high ulnar nerve neuropathy are reported. Lesions were localized at the midarm level by electrophysiologic studies. In the first case, the lesion was found mainly to be a prolonged neurapraxia, and neurolysis was effective. The ulnar nerve was swollen 1 cm in length under the arcade of Struthers. After neurolysis, the palsy recovered rapidly. In the other case, the lesion seemed to be a mild injury to the myelin sheath. Delayed segmental conduction velocity and partial conduction block were found at the midarm level. The paresis improved slightly during the 11-month followup without any treatment, but the electrophysiologic studies were unchanged. In both cases, physical examination did not distinguish the lesions from cubital tunnel syndrome. Electrophysiologic examination proved to be effective as a diagnostic procedure. In the presence of ulnar neuropathy, the upper arm segment should be included in a routine nerve conduction study to screen for the rare but important entrapment neuropathy caused by the arcade of Struthers. 相似文献
