The pronator teres is part of an important landmark for the cubital fossa, which is the triangular area located on the anterior upper limb between the arm and forearm. The lateral end of the pronator teres forms the medial border of the cubital fossa. [2] As its name suggests, the primary function of the pronator teres is to pronate the forearm. Pronator syndrome was diagnosed by 2 hand surgeons in 22 extremities (19 patients) through a clinical evaluation that included a history and physical examination. Diagnostic testing was positive for findings of PS in 24% of extremities (5 of 21) tested by EDX, in 57% of extremities (12 of 21) tested by US, and 5% of extremities (1 of 21) tested Introduction. Compression neuropathy of the median nerve in the proximal forearm was first termed "pronator syndrome" in 1951 by Dr. Seyffarth. The classic definition describes entrapment of the median nerve where it passes between the two heads of the pronator teres muscle. Abnormal anatomic structures, such as a schwannoma or ganglion Objective Focal high signal is commonly seen about the flexor pronator mass on MRI in some patients after ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) reconstruction of the elbow. The etiology of this high signal is unclear and not described in literature. The hypothesis is that the edema we see on post-operative MRI is related to palmaris longus graft harvest rather than secondary to other causes of hypertrophy of the pronator teres muscles were compared.19 An MRI was obtained of both forearms in the supine position in a 1.5-Tesla MRI unit (Aera; Siemens, Erlangen, Germany). The MRI results were assessed by the radiologist who performed the US assessment and was blinded to the US results.
