[Total ulnar nerve paralysis in epiphysiolysis of the radius].
Closed epiphysiolysis of the distal radius was followed by a complete sensomotor paralysis of the ulnar nerve revealed on removing the cast. The cause of paralysis was entrapment of the nerve and flexor carpi ulnaris in the fracture. After release of the incarceration and microsurgical extraneural and intraneural neurolysis very good rehabilitation of nervous function resulted. To exclude nerve injury the importance of exact detailed examination of recently injured persons is re-emphasized.
