Retrospective, nonrandomized analysis of subcutaneous anterior transposition vs in situ decompression of the ulnar nerve of military service members

Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery Mar 22, 2019

Dunn JC, et al. - Between 2006 and 2010, researchers assessed the subjective and objective midterm functional clinical consequences of subcutaneous anterior transposition (SAT) as compared to in situ decompression (SD) of the ulnar nerve for the treatment of cubital tunnel syndrome. They noticed a 72% telephone interview response rate with a total of 65 SD and 67 SAT subjects satisfying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The average follow-up period was 6.5 years for SD patients and 6.3 years for SAT patients with an average age of 32.3 years for all individuals. A lower mean Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand score was recorded among SD patients when compared with SAT subjects. Overall, they concluded SD cases with mildly superior clinical outcomes as compared to SAT patients.
