Ulnar nerve injury

In the wrist, the ulnar nerve is susceptible to cutting injuries. On the fingers and palms, the finger nerves are easily cut or bruised. The deep branch of the ulnar nerve is a motor branch and can sometimes be punctured or penetrated. In the elbow, the ulnar god often suffers from direct trauma or fracture dislocation with injuries. Ulnar nerve injury caused by severe elbow valgus deformity and ulnar nerve slippage is also called cubital tunnel syndrome or chronic ulnar neuritis. If you do not pay attention to protection during general anesthesia, so that your hand dangles near the operating table, it may cause paralysis due to excessive compression. In the cervical rib or anterior scalene syndrome, the ulnar nerve is the most damaged.
