Ultrasound-guided percutaneous electrical stimulation for a patient with cubital tunnel syndrome: a case report with a one-year follow-up.

Conclusion: A patient with ulnar nerve entrapment at the elbow did not respond to a multimodal conservative care for the previous year. Once the patient was treated with ultrasound-guided PENS targeting the ulnar nerve, full functional recovery and resolution of symptoms were documented. Future clinical studies should examine the effects of PENS in managing neural entrapment syndromes on a statistically powered sample of patients. PMID: 33155496 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
