Summary

The investigators want to compare changes in cross-sectional area (CSA) of the ulnar nerve at the elbow after open release or endoscopic release.

Conditions

  • Ulnar Nerve Compression, Cubital Tunnel

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Cubital tunnel release

The ulnar nerve is decompressed proximally at the intramuscular septum, decompressed more distally through the cubital tunnel and then exposed between the two heads of the flexor carpi ulnaris muscle. Care is taken to ensure that any point that might compress the ulnar nerve either proximally or distally is evaluated.
