Ulnar neuropathy at the elbow (UNE) is the second most common entrapment
neuropathy. It is diagnosed with electrodiagnostic studies, but they can yield
false-negative results. Ultrasound was used to examine 4 patients with UNE and
negative electrodiagnostic findings, and it showed ulnar nerve enlargement near
the elbow in all cases, with a mean cross-sectional area of 20.1 mm. This
indicates that ultrasound may be a useful tool for assessing those with UNE
symptoms and normal electrodiagnostic findings.
