Bipartite Ulnar Nerve - a rare anatomic variation

Bipartite Ulnar Nerve

Abstract

The diagnosis of peripheral neuropathies and motor deficits may be difficult and requires a deep knowledge of the peripheral nerves anatomy.

We present an image of an elbow ultrasonography that revealed a rare anatomical variation of the ulnar nerve in a patient with symptoms compatible to an ulnar entrapment syndrome.
