Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Orthopedic Surgery

Background:

  • Ulnar nerve neuropathy at the wrist is a condition affecting motor and sensory functions.
  • Etiologies can include masses, repetitive activities, and idiopathic causes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present thirteen cases of ulnar nerve neuropathy at the wrist.
  • To analyze the clinical presentations, causes, and treatment outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • Case series review of thirteen patients with ulnar nerve neuropathy.
  • Preoperative imaging (ultrasonography, computerized tomography) and surgical intervention were utilized.

Main Results:

  • Presentations included pure motor paresis (4), pure sensory deficit (1), and mixed deficits (8).
  • Etiologies identified were tumors/masses (6), cycling (3), and unknown (3).
