Abstract
- This article discusses ulnar, median, and radial nerve compression in the proximal forearm and elbow and some possible common misconceptions. In particular, the ligament of Struthers extremely rarely causes ulnar neuropathy. Lacertus syndrome and flexor superficialis-pronator syndrome can be diagnosed separately. Surgical release can be through a small incision. Acronyms for compression to radial nerve in proximal forearm can be simplified to radial tunnel syndrome, which includes a mild type (classical radial tunnel syndrome) and a severe type (posterior interosseous nerve (PIN) compression).<br /> (Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Inc.
