Abstract

Compression neuropathy of the ulnar nerve due to anconeus epitrochlearis muscle is rare in adolescents. It is usually known that the hypertrophied muscle in adult or weightlifting athletes compresses the ulnar nerve. There were only few case reports in children and adolescent relevant to athletic activities. In this case, a non-athlete 15-year-old girl developed compression ulnar nerve neuropathy caused by an anconeus epitrochearis muscle. This case is remarkable as an anconeus epitrochearis muscle is uncommon in non-athlete children and adolescent since a literature review revealed no previous report.
