Cubital tunnel release/Ulnar nerve transposition

Cubital tunnel release is a procedure that relieves pressure on the ulnar nerve at the elbow by moving the ulnar nerve to a new position. This helps prevent it from being stretched or compressed. It is used to treat numbness, tingling, or weakness in the hand and fingers. The surgery creates more space for the nerve or repositions it. It helps prevent long-term nerve damage. The goal is improved nerve function and pain relief.
