The pronator teres syndrome. Clinical and electrophysiological features in six surgically verified cases.
Six surgically verified cases of pronator teres syndrome are reported. The anatomy of the median nerve at the upper third of the forearm, the relationships between the nerve and the pronator teres muscle and the serial innervation of the muscles of the forearm supplied by the n. medians are described. Clinical and electrophysiological features are reported in detail and their contribution in diagnosing the lesion is discussed.
