[Unusual compression of the ulnar nerve caused by a hematic cyst]. 1979

G Pagliughi, and A Vespasiani

Among the various possible causes underlying compressive syndromes of the ulnar nerve at the wrist, classified as "occupational neuritides", we must number the presence of a hematic cyst in Guyon's canal. The authors describe the occurrence of a hematic cyst in the region of the pyramido-unciform joint, with prompt and complete restoration of ulnar nerve function after surgical removal of the cyst.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
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.
