Wikipedia

  1. cubital nerve

    The cubital tunnel is a space of the dorsal medial elbow which allows passage of the ulnar nerve around the elbow. It is bordered medially by the medial epicondyle of the humerus, laterally by the olecranon process of the ulna and the tendinous arch joining the humeral and ulnar heads of the flexor carpi ulnaris. The roof of the cubital tunnel is elastic and formed by a myofascial trilaminar retinaculum (also known as the epicondyloolecranon ligament or Osborne band).Chronic compression of this nerve is known as cubital tunnel syndrome, a form of repetitive strain injury akin to carpal tunnel syndrome (although the role of repetitive stress in causing carpal tunnel syndrome is controversial).

  1. cubital nerve

    The cubital nerve, also known as the ulnar nerve, is one of the main nerves in the human arm. It runs from the neck down into the hand, and supplies sensation to the forearm, the little finger, and half of the ring finger. It controls most of the fine movements of the fingers and some of the forearm muscles. Damage to this nerve can cause a condition known as ulnar nerve entrapment or cubital tunnel syndrome.
