Symptoms of tunnel pathologies of the radial nerve in the ulnar region were analyzed in 39 patients (48 arms). Of importance in the tunnel neuropathy development is an overstrain of the short radial extensor of the wrist and the supinator which are in a close anatomical contact with the radial nerve branches. The affection of the radial nerve manifests in a sharp painfulness on the lateral surface of the ulnar region. The pains irradiate in the distal direction. Sensitivity disturbances within the autonomous zone innervated by the radial nerve were revealed in 17, and a moderate paresis of the wrist and finger extensors in 18 patients. When the epicondylar branch was involved, the secondary syndrome of lateral epicondylitis developed: this was observed in 34 patients. In 17 patients a deceleration of the impulse transmission along the efferent fibres of the radial nerve was observed. The treatment consisted in paraneural injection of hydrocortisone emulsion and radial nerve decompression.

Important differential diagnoses to epicondylitis humeri radialis are the nerve compression syndromes of the elbow. After a long period of conservative treatment, paresis of the motor branch of nervus radialis in this case led to the diagnosis and surgical treatment showing an unknown submuscular lipoma as the cause of a supinator syndrome with paresis of the finger extensors. In cases of therapy-resistant pain of the elbow, especially resistant to the conservative therapy of an epicondylitis humeri radialis, a nontraumatic supinator syndrome should be considered as a differential diagnosis. A tumor as the cause of a compression syndrome of the motor branch of the nervus radialis is very rare.

A case of radial epicondylitis treated with steroid injections on and distal to the radial side of the elbow, followed by radialis paresis is described. Clinical symptoms, steroid toxicity, and anatomical considerations are discussed. Diagnosis and management are briefly addressed.
