Patient outcomes were analyzed using the Disability of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) questionnaire and the Bishop\u2013Kleinman rating scales. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Results: Patient outcomes were analyzed after a mean follow-up duration of 26.1 (22\u201329) months for 37 extremities. DASH scores improved from 38.7 (range, 13\u201363 points) preoperatively to 5.8 (range, 0\u201318 points) postoperatively. Patient improvement was statistically significant (p &lt; 0.05). Based on the 12-point Bishop\u2013Kleinman rating system, 30 (82.1%) patients were graded as excellent; five (13.5%) as good, and two (5.4%) as failed outcomes. Statistically significant improvements in both key pinch and grip strength were noted. Complications included one case of transient neuroparaxias of the medial antebrachial cutaneous nerve and one case of hematoma formation. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Conclusions: We consider intramuscular ulnar nerve transposition to be a satisfactory procedure for CuTS. The procedure enhances upper limb function, thus allowing the patients to resume their physically demanding work with minimal complications. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s2424835519500504","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,11,6]],"date-time":"2019-11-06T02:04:01Z","timestamp":1573005841000},"page":"400-404","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Functional Results after Intramuscular Ulnar Nerve Anterior Transposition for Young Adults Patients"],"prefix":"10.1142","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Teng-Hui","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Armed Forces Taoyuan General Hospital, Taoyuan, Taiwan"},{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Armed Forces Kaohsiung General Hospital, Gangshan Branch, Kaohsiung, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jui-Tien","family":"Shih","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Armed Forces Taoyuan General Hospital, Taoyuan, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"219","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,11,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"p_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0266-7681(85)80011-5"},{"key":"p_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ana.410070610"},{"key":"p_3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3171\/jns.1973.38.6.0780"},{"key":"p_4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-198062060-00016"},{"key":"p_5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0363-5023(80)80183-3"},{"key":"p_6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0363-5023(09)91100-5"},{"key":"p_7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0363-5023(84)80193-8"},{"key":"p_8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0363-5023(81)80173-6"},{"issue":"164","key":"p_9","first-page":"42","volume":"4","author":"Richmond JC","year":"1982","journal-title":"Clin Orthop Relat Res."},{"key":"p_10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0363-5023(89)80046-2"},{"key":"p_11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0363-5023(78)80121-X"},{"key":"p_12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0266-7681(05)80151-2"},{"key":"p_13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0363-5023(89)90192-5"}],"container-title":["The Journal of Hand Surgery (Asian-Pacific Volume)"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.worldscientific.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1142\/S2424835519500504","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,11,6]],"date-time":"2019-11-06T02:04:21Z","timestamp":1573005861000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.worldscientific.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1142\/S2424835519500504"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2019,11,5]]},"references-count":13,"journal-issue":{"issue":"04","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2019,12]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1142\/S2424835519500504"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1142\/s2424835519500504","relation":{},"ISSN":["2424-8355","2424-8363"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2424-8355","type":"print"},{"value":"2424-8363","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2019,11,5]]}}}
