  • Title: Ulnar nerve laceration in a closed both bone forearm fracture.
    Author: Torpey BM, Pess GM, Kircher MT, Faierman E, Absatz MG.
    Journal: J Orthop Trauma; 1996; 10(2):131-4. PubMed ID: 8932674.
    Abstract:
    Ulnar nerve injury is rarely associated with closed forearm fractures. This report describes a case of ulnar nerve laceration secondary to a closed fracture of the radius and ulna. Although a case report of an ulnar nerve laceration in an open fracture has been described, a review of the literature failed to reveal any cases in closed injuries. The standard surgical approach was modified to allow treatment of the fractures and microscopic repair of the nerve.
