Ulnar Nerve Management in Complex Elbow Dislocations: A Retrospective Monocentric Study
The ulnar nerve’s unique anatomy makes it vulnerable to complex elbow dislocations. Depending on the nature of the injury, the clinical treatment and outcomes related to the nerve may vary. Unfortunately, the current literature provides limited and fragmented information on managing the ulnar nerve and the incidence of neuropathy in complex elbow dislocations. This study aimed to determine the occurrence of ulnar nerve pain and its relationship with transposition.
