| Popis: | The common neuropathy Cubital Tunnel Syndrome (CuTS) causes sensory impairment. Numerous patients also exhibit muscle atrophy as a symptom of severe and persistent nerve damage, which typically portends a poor prognosis. In the majority of individuals with minor nerve dysfunction, nonsurgical treatment aimed at reducing both compression and traction on the ulnar nerve at the elbow is successful. The optimum care for a patient with this pathology requires prompt and accurate evaluation, diagnosis, and testing, as well as evidence-based therapy choices. The goal of this review article was to offer an updated summary of the most recent research on the results of several surgical procedures for CuTS. A clinician must use the available information to develop a diagnosis and treatment plan that are unique to the patient. The most effective surgical methods for CuTS need to be discovered through more in-depth scientific investigation. |
