What Is an Ulnar Claw?
The ulnar nerve is close to the superficial part of the humerus, behind the palate, and between the ulna olecranon (ulnar nerve sulcus), which is easily affected by fractures or dislocations. The typical manifestation of ulnar nerve paralysis is a claw-shaped hand deformity, with the ring finger and the little finger as the direction, and the thumb is often in the abduction state. The movement of the fingers is restricted and the movement of the finger is restricted, and the movement of the little finger is lost. The area of sensory loss is mainly on the ulnar side of the back of the hand, half of the ulnar side of the little fish, little finger and ring finger.
