Abstrakt: We highlight a case of bilateral ulnar nerve instability in a young, competitive decathlete. The symptoms proved disabling to the athlete's daily training routine and required operative measures in the form of an anterior submuscular transposition without epicondylectomy. The procedure proved effective with complete resolution of troublesome symptoms. Within 6 months post-operatively, the patient returned to train and perform at an elite national standard in his sport. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
