5 lip 2023 · The superficial branch of the ulnar nerve supplies sensory innervation to the anterior aspect of the ulnar 1½ digits (little finger and half of the ring finger) and medial palmar skin. Additionally, it provides motor innervation to the palmaris brevis muscle in the hypothenar region of the hand.

4 paź 2024 · Dorsal cutaneous branch – innervates the dorsal surface of the medial one and a half fingers, and the associated dorsal hand area. At the wrist, the ulnar nerve travels superficially to the flexor retinaculum, and is medial to the ulnar artery. It enters the hand via the ulnar canal (Guyon’s canal).

9 paź 2023 · The ulnar nerve is one of the three main nerves of the upper limb and plays a critical role in both sensory and motor functions. It arises from the medial cord of the brachial plexus and primarily innervates parts of the forearm and hand.
13 lis 2023 · The important nerves from the brachial plexus that innervate the hand and wrist are the median, ulnar, and radial nerves: The median nerve passes through the carpal tunnel under the flexor retinaculum of the hand and distally divides into recurrent and common palmar digital branches.
Abstract. The anatomy of the ulnar nerve is described from its origin at the brachial plexus to its termination in the hand and digits. The critical anatomy surrounding the cubital tunnel and Guyon canal is emphasized, and clinically relevant anatomic variations, muscle anomalies, and peripheral nerve anastomoses are described.
