Cubital Tunnel Syndrome is characterized by the compression of the ulnar nerve in the cubital tunnel and can cause restrictions to the activities of daily living. Traditional treatment includes conservative methods and, in more severe cases, different types of surgery. In these cases, common side effects of surgery may limit the clinical success. A new alternative could be a minimally invasive Ultrasound-guided (US-guided) thread release of cubital tunnel retinaculum also known as the Osborne's ligament. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided thread cubital tunnel release (TCuTR) in an anatomical specimen model.
