Ten patients who had persistent or recurrent paresthesias, muscular weakness, or sensory loss following transposition of the ulnar nerve at the elbow were explored. Operative findings included compression of the nerve at the intermuscular septum or at the entrance to the cubital tunnel, dense scarring after intramuscular transposition, and constriction by fascial slings. The average interval from the previous operation to re-exploration was 13 months. All patients were improved following neurolysis and submuscular transposition. Recovery was incomplete in nine patients. The average follow-up was 14.5 months.
