We performed short segment incremental stimulation on 13 consecutive patients with ulnar neuropathy across the elbow (UNE) and conduction block. Conduction block occurred proximal to the medial epicondyle in 62%, at the epicondyle in 23%, and below the elbow in 15%. The ulnar nerve may be more prone

## Abstract Thirtyβtwo patients with a mononeuropathy multiplex associated with a systemic necrotizing vasculitis were studied. The main abnormality was a loss of motor and sensory axons confirmed by electrophysiological and histological methods. A conduction block was observed in five patients, bu
## Abstract The aim of the study was to assess the diagnostic value of shortβsegment nerve conduction studies (NCS) at 2βcm intervals from 4 cm above to 4 cm below the medial epicondyle in a large group of patients with ulnar neuropathy at the elbow (UNE). Furthermore, we wanted to compare electrod
Diaphragmatic paralysis has previously been reported as a result of diverse pathologic processes involving the peripheral nervous system. We report the clinical history, physical findings, and antibody profile of an atypical case of multifocal motor neuropathy with conduction block initially present
## Abstract A MartinβGruber anastomosis (MGA) commonly results in an abnormal decline in amplitude across the forearm segment when ulnar motor nerve conduction studies are performed. A recent report described a proximal MGA resembling partial conduction block in a patient with ulnar neuropathy at t
