Cubital Tunnel Release at the Elbow
This outpatient procedure, performed under general or regional anesthesia, alleviates compression of the ulnar nerve. This nerve travels along the inner side of the elbow and down to the hand. Cubital tunnel release is used to treat cubital tunnel syndrome which involves symptoms of numbness in small and ring finger of the hand.
