This type of surgery is carried out to relieve nerve entrapment (cubital tunnel syndrome) and involves moving the ulnar nerve from its position behind the medial epicondyle to a new location in front of it.
Moving the ulnar nerve means that it is no longer trapped on the bony ridge and stretched when the elbow is bent.
