AbstractPeripheral nerve injuries of the upper extremity can result from a wide array of etiologies, with the two most common being compression neuropathy and traumatic injuries. These types of injuries are common and can be psychologically, functionally, and financially devastating to the patient. A detailed preoperative evaluation is imperative for appropriate management. Traumatic injuries can typically be treated with local burial techniques, targeted muscle reinnervation, and regenerative peripheral nerve interfaces. Median nerve compression is frequently managed with complete release of the antebrachial fascia/transverse carpal ligament and/or use of flap coverage such as the hypothenar fat pad flap and local muscle flaps. Ulnar nerve compression is commonly managed via submuscular transposition, subcutaneous transposition, neurolysis, and nerve wrapping. In this review, we discuss the preoperative evaluation, surgical techniques, and advantages and disadvantages of each treatment modality for patients with compressive and traumatic upper extremity nerve injuries.
