“…PNS is currently used in adults for various indications, including complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), post-herpetic neuralgia, lumbar and thoracic spinal neuropathy, and peripheral neuropathic pain from the sciatic, femoral, or saphenous nerve [11][12][13][14][15]. PNS acts both on the peripheral and central nervous systems and modulates inflammatory pathways and the autonomic nervous system [16,17].…”

Neuropathy secondary to ulnar nerve entrapment is a painful condition that often persists following surgical decompression. We present the case of a 43-year-old female with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and left ulnar neuritis refractory to surgical management. Peripheral nerve stimulation of the ulnar nerve proximal to the elbow resulted in a significant reduction in pain and improvement in disability post-implantation. This case suggests that peripheral nerve stimulation is a promising minimally invasive technique that should be considered for treating non-operative upper extremity neuropathic pain.

The review addresses the issues of diagnosis and surgical treatment of concomitant chronic injuries of the upper limb nerves. The role of modern additional research methods in damage to the nerves is shown, and, depending on the prevalence of damage to certain structures, the value of each technique is shown. A detailed description of the clinical manifestations of sensory and motor disorders of the hand is given. The reasons for the diagnostic and tactical errors made during the examination and treatment of victims at the stages of medical evacuation are especially indicated. Depending on the nature and the duration of the injury, the expediency of using traditional and microsurgical methods of correction for chronic damage to the nerves is shown. The issues of neurotization and tendomuscular transposition are highlighted, and indications for their use are determined. Keywords: Upper limb, chronic injuries of the nerves, neurotization, tendomuscular transposition.
