Traumatic aneurysm of the ulnar artery in a child
Injury-international Journal of The Care of The Injured, 1997Co-Authors: Jérôme Cron, Christophe Saliou, Jean-noël FabianiAbstract:Although aneurysms in the arms are less frequent than in the legs, they are not rare’,2. However, false as well as true aneurysms of the main trunk of the ulnar artery are very uncommon. They are generally localized to its superficial segment on the Hypothenar Eminence due to repeated injury as in the Hypothenar hammer syndrome’,“. They may cause chronic ischaemia by thrombo-embolism. True aneurysms are characteristic of this syndrome and in blunt injury of the hand and the forearm. False aneurysms are more often secondary to penetrating arterial injury. Vascular complications of closed fractures of the forearm are rare. When they occur they present with abolition of a distal pulse or signs of ischaemia, more severe when both forearm arteries are involved. To our knowledge, such a case of ulnar artery aneurysm has not been reported before in the literature. Erdoes et a1.5 recently reported a ruptured false aneurysm of the ulnar artery in an P&year-old lady 20 years after a wrist fracture treated on traction5.

Ulnar tunnel syndrome with ultrasonographic nerve imaging.
Pain physician, 2015Co-Authors: Elif Yalcin, Müfit Akyüz, Ece UnluAbstract:A 32-year-old man presented to our clinic complaining of numbness of the little finger and the ulnar aspect of the ring finger of his right hand. He complained about the weakness of grip strength and ulnar-sided pain. At the first glance, wasting of the first interossei muscle could be recognized. In his detailed examination, the medial half of the palmar aspect of the hand, including the Hypothenar Eminence, along with the palmar side of the fourth and fifth digits showed decreased sensation to light touch. Severe weakness of the abductor digiti minimi (ADM) was noted. No sensory loss was found in the dorsum of the hand, excluding the diagnosis of ulnar neuropathy at the elbow.

A reverse ulnar Hypothenar flap for finger reconstruction.
Plastic and reconstructive surgery, 2000Co-Authors: Shohei Omokawa, Hiroshi Yajima, Yuji Inada, Akihiro Fukui, Susumu TamaiAbstract:A reverse-flow island flap from the Hypothenar Eminence of the hand was applied in 11 patients to treat palmar skin defects, amputation injuries, or flexion contractures of the little finger. There were three female and eight male patients, and their ages at the time of surgery averaged 46 years. A

Anatomical basis for a fasciocutaneous flap from the Hypothenar Eminence of the hand.
British journal of plastic surgery, 1996Co-Authors: Shohei Omokawa, J. Ryu, J.-b. Tang, J.s. HanAbstract:Thirty-two fresh cadaver hands were perfused with a silicone rubber compound (Microfil) and dissected to explore the vascular and neural anatomy of the Hypothenar Eminence, in order to assess the possibility for free or pedicled island flaps from this area. In five specimens Microfil was selectively injected into the ulnar palmar digital artery of the little finger to determine the skin territory nourished by this artery. The Hypothenar Eminence was divided into three territories according to the type of nutrient artery supplying each territory. Among the three territories, the distal half of the ulnar aspect of the Hypothenar Eminence (approximately 3 x 2 cm), located over the abductor and flexor digiti minimi muscles, had a constant vascular and neural supply from the ulnar palmar digital artery of the little finger and the dorsal or palmar cutaneous branch of the ulnar nerve. This fasciocutaneous area provides a new and feasible donor site for free or pedicled island skin flaps to repair palmar skin defects of the fingers.
