Mononeuropathy - Ulnar Nerve (C8-T1)

 

Thank you for asking me Harry who presented with weakness in his hands.

 

The salient findings were:

• Weakness of the small muscles of the hands, sparing the thenar eminence

• An ulnar claw like hand

• Weakness of finger abduction and adduction

• Sensory loss over the little and medial half of the ring finger

• This is most consistent with an ulnar nerve palsy
