Abstract

The authors present a case of reverse palmaris longus muscle (RPLM) with consequential compression of the ulnar nerve within Guyon’s canal. They report clinical findings, investigations, including magnetic resonance imagining and functional assessments, and intraoperative findings. The authors found improved sensory and motor function following excision of RPLM. There are few previous case reports regarding RPLM and concomitant compression of the ulnar nerve within Guyon’s canal.
