Ulnar nerve lesions at the wrist

New technique for recording from the sensory dorsal branch of the ulnar nerve

Department of Neurology, Louisiana State University Medical Center, New Orleans, LA.

The forearm segment of the ulnar nerve is difficult to assess if the nerve has been injured severely at the wrist. A new, simple nerve conduction technique of recording from the sensory dorsal branch of the nerve localizes the lesion and enables easier evaluation of that segment than do other techniques.
