Back to Physician Literature CUBITAL TUNNEL SYNDROME AND THE PAINFUL UPPER EXTREMITY A. Marc Tetro, MD, FRCSC, and David R. Pichora, MD, FRCSC What is cubital tunnel syndrome? What is its relation to the painful upper extremity? What is its impact on the patient with a chronic pain syndrome? Cubital tunnel syndrome is the most common form of entrapment of the uInar nerve and the second most common nerve compression syndrome of the upper extremity. It classically presents with arm and hand pain and associated sensory and motor dysfunction, making it a common cause of upper-extremity pain. Prior to 1957, uInar neuropathy was felt to be a "stretch neuritis" caused by cubitus valgus. In fact, the predominant cause of ulnar neuropathy was secondary to elbow injuries. Osborne proposed the concept of compression of the uInar nerve in 1957, with Feindel and Stratford defining the "cubital tunnel" the following year. Since the advent of more successful orthopedic management of complex elbow injuries, the more frequent cause of ulnar nerve entrapment has become idiopathic or related to a "susceptible" patient . Nonetheless, it appears that uInar nerve entrapment is increasing in prevalence (although no data are available), with pain often being a predominant morbidity.

Cubital Tunnel Syndrome The funny bone is actually a nerve on the inside of the elbow that runs in a passage called the cubital tunnel! Sometimes this area becomes irritated, leading to a condition called cubital tunnel syndrome. Anatomy Beginning at the side of the neck, the ulnar nerve travels through the arm pit, down the arm to the hand and fingers. At the inner portion of the back of the elbow, the ulnar nerve passes through a tunnel of muscle, ligament and bone - the cubital tunnel . The nerve ends in the hand, supplying feeling to the pinky and half the ring finger. In addition, these nerves cause movement in the small muscles of the hand. Causes There are several possible causes of cubital tunnel syndrome. Frequent bending of the elbow such as pulling levers, reaching, or lifting are common sources of problems. Even anatomy may play a role. The ulnar nerve actually stretches several millimeters when the elbow is bent. Sometimes the nerve will shift or actually snap over the bony medial epicondyle causing irritation.

The ulnar nerve passes close to the surface of the skin at the elbow ("funny bone") and is easily damaged by repeatedly leaning on the elbow, by bending the elbow for prolonged periods, or sometimes by abnormal bone growth in the area. Baseball pitchers are prone to cubital tunnel syndrome because of the extra twist of the arm required to throw a slider.

This information should not be interpreted as The Indiana Hand Center's click here What is Cubital Tunnel Syndrome? Cubitus is Latin for elbow. The cubital tunnel is an anatomic passageway between the bony prominence of the inside of the elbow (medial epicondyle) and the tip of the elbow (olecranon process). Through this passageway travels the ulnar nerve as it crosses behind the elbow. To keep the nerve from displacing with motion of the elbow, the tunnel is completed by a covering of tissue called fascia. There is an entrance to the tunnel formed by the medial intermuscular septum and another covering layer of fascia called the arcade of Struthers. The exit of the tunnel is created by the two muscle origins of the flexor carpi ulnaris. Cubital tunnel syndrome occurs when there is compression or injury of the ulnar nerve in the cubital tunnel. Although shielded from injury from the sides by the medial epicondyle and olecranon, the ulnar nerve is only superficially covered by a soft tissue between these bony prominences. In most individuals, the ulnar nerve is easily felt about the cubital tunnel. Anyone who has ever struck their "funny bone" knows how easily the ulnar nerve may be affected by direct injury. Your Indiana Hand Center physician will be able to demonstrate the anatomy to you on your own elbow.

Cubital Tunnel Syndrome What is cubital tunnel syndrome? Cubital tunnel syndrome feels similar to the pain that occurs from hitting the “funny” bone in your elbow. The “funny” bone in the elbow is actually the ulnar nerve, a nerve that crosses the elbow (the ulnar nerve begins in the side of the neck and ends in the fingers). What causes cubital tunnel syndrome? Cubital tunnel syndrome occurs when the ulnar nerve, which passes through the cubital tunnel (a tunnel of muscle, ligament, and bone) on the inside of the elbow, becomes irritated due to injury or pressure. The condition may occur when a person frequently bends the elbows (such as when pulling, reaching, or lifting), constantly leans on the elbow, or sustains a direct injury to the area. What are the symptoms of cubital tunnel syndrome? The following are the most common symptoms of cubital tunnel syndrome. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include: numbness in the hand and/or ring and little finger hand pain hand and thumb clumsiness due to muscle weakness The symptoms of cubital tunnel syndrome may resemble other medical conditions or problems, including medial epicondylitis (golfer’s elbow). Always consult your physician for a diagnosis.
