We report a case of hypothenar hammer syndrome following a single severe blunt trauma in a 24-year-old man with a painful pulsatile mass, numbness in the fourth and fifth fingers, and intolerance to cold. The gray-scale and color Doppler sonographic findings are presented with correlation with MRI.
