Abstract: We study complete finite topology immersed surfaces $Sigma$ in complete Riemannian $3$-manifolds $N$ with sectional curvature $K_{N}leq-a^{2}leq0$, such that the absolute mean curvature function of $Sigma$ is bounded from above by $a$ and its injectivity radius function is not bounded away from zero on each of its annular end representatives. We prove that such a surface $Sigma$ must be proper in $N$ and its total curvature must be equal to $2pichi(Sigma)$. If $N$ is a hyperbolic $3$-manifold of finite volume and $Sigma$ is a properly immersed surface of finite topology with nonnegative constant mean curvature less than 1, then we prove that each end of $Sigma$ is asymptotic (with finite positive multiplicity) to a totally umbilic annulus, properly embedded in $N$.
