摘要
The cubital tunnel syndrome is responsible for the ulnar nerve neuropathy, this condition is surpassed in frequency only by carpal tunnel syndrome. The ulnar nerve has complex anatomy andmay suffer compression at different points along its path, so understanding the clinical nuances and detailed anatomy as well asmeticulous surgical technique becomes essential in the treatment of this pathology.
