  • Title: Entrapment of the lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve exiting through the forearm fascia.
    Author: Belzile E, Cloutier D.
    Journal: J Hand Surg Am; 2001 Jan; 26(1):64-7. PubMed ID: 11172370.
    Abstract:
    Isolated lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve entrapment syndromes are uncommon. This report describes the compression of the lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve of the forearm at the level of its passage through the superficial antebrachial fascia, distal to the elbow crease. Numbness and a painful dysesthesia over the radial aspect of the volar forearm were documented. Failure of conservative treatment necessitated surgical decompression.
