Patient Characteristics in Ulnar Nerve Compression at the Elbow at a Tertiary Referral Hospital and Predictive Factors for Outcomes of Simple Decompression versus Subcutaneous Transposition of the Ulnar Nerve

Figure 1

Distribution of complications in 202 cases with surgery for ulnar nerve compression at the elbow. Eighty-one percent (163/202) of the surgeries were completed without any complications. The complication rate was 11% (12/114) for simple decompression, 32% (18/56) for primary anterior subcutaneous transposition, and 28% (9/23) for secondary anterior subcutaneous transposition.
