Evaluation of PROMIS Outcomes for Surgical Treatment of Cubital Tunnel Syndrome With and Without Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Abstract: Background: Assessment of outcomes for cubital tunnel syndrome (CuTS) surgeries has been difficult due to heterogeneity in outcome reporting. Our objective was to evaluate the outcomes for 2 cohorts treated surgically for isolated CuTS and for combined CuTS and carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) using Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS). Methods: There were 29 patients in the isolated CuTS cohort and 30 patients in the combined CuTS and CTS cohort. PROMIS Physical Function (PF), Pain In… Show more

“…Though most commonly used and effective procedure is anterior transposition; because it relieves stress on the ulnar nerve while performing elbow flexion. 9,[11][12][13][14][15] The dissection of the ulnar nerve deems compulsory to transpose, this would compromise the vascular supply of the nerve and sometimes inadvertent damage of medial antebrachial cutaneous nerve. 3,7,16 While compared with anterior transposition, in-situ decompression takes the lead in effectively treating the CuTS.…”
