The surgical outcomes were evaluated for pain score (visual analog scale; VAS), range of motion (ROM), and Mayo Elbow Performance Score (MEPS). The ulnar nerve decompression was performed for (1) ulnar nerve neuropathy, and (2) high-grade stiffness of flexion, defined as the flexion angle, is &lt;90\u00b0. Patients were categorized into the two groups: ulnar nerve decompression group (UD group, n = 11) and the non-decompression group (Non-UD group, n = 19). The surgical outcome was compared between the groups.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Primary elbow OA with cubital tunnel syndrome or high-grade stiffness showed comparable improvement in MEPS, VAS, and ROM arc at final follow-up in the UD group compared with the non-UD group (UD group vs. non-UD group: MEPS 85.91 vs 86.84, p-value = 0.824, VAS 1.46 vs 1.16, p-value = 0.588, ROM arc 108 vs 109, p-value = 0.949).
