Intra-Articular Entrapment of the Median Nerve after Dislocation of the ElbowFrom the University Hospital, Copenhagen
A case of median nerve paralysis due to intra-articular entrapment occurring after closed reduction of a dislocation of the elbow joint is reported. In the present case, as in most other reported cases, diagnosis and treatment was delayed. If median nerve paralysis occurs following elbow dislocation and is accompanied by an unusual amount of pain, or if it occurs following reduction, entrapment should be suspected and the nerve explored without delay.
