About Cubital Tunnel Release with Carpal Tunnel Release
The cubital tunnel, also known as the ulnar nerve, can manifest painful symptoms when compressed. The carpal tunnel is a narrow passage in the wrist where the median nerve runs. Although these are separate conditions, they often develop due to the same repetitive movements. Many patients will experience these conditions at the same time due to their related causes.
For patients who have both cubital and carpal tunnel syndrome at the same time, joint surgery is a great option. This procedure will address both areas of concern simultaneously, ultimately shortening the recovery time.
¿Cuando es necesario este procedimiento?
Patients with cubital and carpal tunnel syndrome can greatly benefit from this joint procedure. However, surgery is not always the best option for everyone suffering from these conditions. In many cases, conservative treatments can help patients manage their pain effectively.
Patients may consider a cubital tunnel release with a carpal tunnel release if:
- They experience pain from cubital and carpal tunnel syndrome
- Diagnostic testing revealed significant nerve damage
- Conservative efforts have been ineffective
Carpal tunnel syndrome and cubital tunnel syndrome can manifest very painful, debilitating symptoms. Although some patients may choose to undergo these procedures separately, there are benefits to a joint operation. Ultimately, the decision depends on your preferences and what your surgeon sees as the most viable option.

Preparación para el procedimiento
It is very important to follow all preoperative instructions your orthopedic surgeon orders. During this procedure, patients are placed under general anesthesia so they can remain comfortable. The surgeon will decompress two nerves in one surgery, so this procedure will require two incisions. To comprehensively understand this procedure, patients need to understand each procedure individually. The surgeon will remove the cartilage or bone fragments from the degenerated joint and rejoin them together.
After the procedure, you may experience discomfort while the site is healing. Since you are having two conditions treated at once, the recovery may feel longer and more complex. However, the joint procedure also allows both areas to heal simultaneously, cutting the rehabilitation period in half. Recovery time varies, but many patients will feel better and can return to all their favorite activities within 6-8 weeks.
