Compression of the deep palmar branch of the ulnar nerve. A case report. 1985

R E Hogue

This case report demonstrated the use of EMG and nerve conduction studies to assist in delineating the site of the injury of an ulnar nerve lesion in the hand and to show nerve recovery after decompressive surgery.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008297	Male		Males
D009408	Nerve Compression Syndromes	Mechanical compression of nerves or nerve roots from internal or external causes. These may result in a conduction block to nerve impulses (due to MYELIN SHEATH dysfunction) or axonal loss. The nerve and nerve sheath injuries may be caused by ISCHEMIA; INFLAMMATION; or a direct mechanical effect.

D014459	Ulnar Nerve	A major nerve of the upper extremity. In humans, the fibers of the ulnar nerve originate in the lower cervical and upper thoracic spinal cord (usually C7 to T1), travel via the medial cord of the brachial plexus, and supply sensory and motor innervation to parts of the hand and forearm.
