Cubital tunnel syndrome is a common entrapment neuropathy affecting the ulnar nerve. Intraneural ganglion cyst and nerve abscess due to leprosy can cause cubital tunnel syndrome. In this article, we are presenting a case of cubital tunnel syndrome caused due to an intraneural ganglion cyst in a 48-year-old lady. It had produced some diagnostic confusion due to its clinical similarity with nerve abscess. This is the first report of a case of an intraneural ganglion cyst of the ulnar nerve masquerading the diagnosis of a nerve abscess.
肘管综合征是一种常见的累及尺神经的卡压性神经病变。麻风引起的神经内腱鞘囊肿和神经脓肿可导致肘管综合征。在本文中,我们报告了一例48岁女性因神经内腱鞘囊肿导致肘管综合征的病例。由于其临床表现与神经脓肿相似,造成了一些诊断上的困惑。这是首例尺神经神经内腱鞘囊肿误诊为神经脓肿的病例报告。
