Variaciones Anatómicas en sujetos con Síndrome de Compresión en los Canales Ulnar y de Guyon. Revisión Narrativa.

Abstract

Abstract:Ulnar nerve compression syndrome is a condition that significantly impairs the lives of those who suffer from it. The importance of thoroughly understanding the anatomy of the affected areas lies in the ability to provide an accurate diagnosis and, consequently, effective treatment. Ultrasound is emerging as an outstanding diagnostic technique, capable of revealing in real time the anatomical alterations responsible for ulnar nerve compression, especially in Guyon's and ulnar canals. This narrative review focuses on the ultrasound characterization of these anatomical variations, aiming to provide the medical literature with comprehensive data on individual differences in patients affected by this syndrome. The specific objectives of this study include cataloging anatomical variations, correlating them with clinical symptoms, evaluating the efficacy of ultrasound as a diagnostic tool, and developing clinical guidelines to improve disease management. This scientific endeavor promises to enrich understanding in the field of clinical anatomy and ultrasound, offering tangible benefits to both healthcare professionals and those interested in these disciplines.
