Abstract
Ulnar nerve dislocation is defined as abnormal movement of the ulnar nerve at the elbow joint. This dislocation has been reported in 16% of asymptomatic arms. However, posttraumatic ulnar nerve subluxation remains a rare clinical entity. We present a unique case of posttraumatic ulnar nerve dislocation and describe clinical characteristics and etiology of this injury and how it was managed.
