Measurements performed in this study: (1) distance between the wrist flexion crease and branching of the deep motor branch from the ulnar nerve, (2) distance between the wrist flexion crease and division of the superficial sensory branch of the ulnar nerve into the fourth common digital nerve and the ulnar proper digital nerve of the little finger, (3) distance between the wrist flexion crease and the origin of the communicating branch, (4) angle of the communicating branch with the originating nerve, (5) and distance from the distal edge of the transverse carpal ligament to the origin of communicating branch.
