The Surgical Treatment of Bilateral Accessory Extensor Carpi Ulnaris: Case Report and Literature Review

View through CrossRef
AbstractSeveral abnormal pathologies, such as inflammation or degenerative change, can be causes of ulnar-sided wrist pain. This study demonstrated bilateral accessory extensor carpi ulnaris found in a patient who presented with bilateral wrist pain. The patient was initially treated with all conventional methods but failed to improve. Following the operation by releasing the sixth extensor compartment, the pain was completely relieved. The Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) score was remarkably improved and there was no limitation in daily living activities compared with preoperative status. We presented an uncommon condition of ulnar-sided wrist pain caused by bilateral accessory extensor carpi ulnaris which was successfully treated by releasing the extensor compartmental sheath without tendon resection.
