Anthropometry and Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release
Journal of Hand Surgery, 1999A prospective study was performed in 100 consecutive endoscopic carpal tunnel releases (ECTR) to assess the effect of a number of anthropometric measures on the ease of introduction of the ECTR system into the carpal tunnel. Ease of access to the carpal tunnel correlated with the wrist circumference, height and age of patients.

MRI of carpal tunnel syndrome: before and after carpal tunnel release
Clinical Radiology, 2021Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common peripheral nerve entrapment syndrome. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly used to diagnose CTS, exclude secondary causes of CTS, and investigate patients with persistent symptoms after carpal tunnel release.

The use of a limited distal skin incision in performing open carpal tunnel release is a safe, efficient, easily reproducible means of alleviating median nerve compression at this level. The use of readily available equipment and need for minimal anaesthetic support makes it a suitable procedure even in the remotest of rural settings.

Surgical release of the carpal tunnel
Hand Clinics, 2002A thorough understanding of the normal anatomy and possible anomalies that may exist is important for the surgeon managing median nerve compression at the wrist. Given the high incidence of anatomic variability occurring in and around the carpal canal, open decompression of the median nerve is the preferred surgical technique for treating carpal tunnel

Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release
Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 1995Endoscopic carpal tunnel release is a technically demanding and precise procedure, but one that can be mastered to the benefit of our patients. Once mastered, the rewards of shorter operating times, reduced postoperative pain, earlier return to activities of daily living and employment, and more satisfied patients can be realized.

Single-Portal Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release: Agee Carpal Tunnel Release System
Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1996This single-group prospective cohort study was conducted to define the efficacy and safety of single-portal endoscopic carpal tunnel release using the redesigned carpal tunnel release system (3M Healthcare, St Paul, MN). Eighty-six procedures in 69 patients were evaluated by objective motor/sensory testing and clinical outcome questionnaire at 10 days,

Minimally Invasive Carpal Tunnel Release
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2009We prospectively compared the safety and effectiveness of mini-incision (group A) and a limited open technique (group B) for carpal tunnel release (CTR) in 185 consecutive patients operated between November 1999 and May 2001, with a 5-year minimum follow-up. Patients in Group A had a minimally invasive approach (

Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release
AORN Journal, 1993Endoscopic carpal tunnel decompression is a new and effective way of relieving CTS. It shortens the recovery period and the length of time required to resume normal postoperative activity. The majority of our patients have experienced relief of symptoms and, in instances where the opposite hand was affected by CTS, have returned for that hand to be ...

Complications of Carpal Tunnel Release
2020Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is the most common peripheral compressive neuropathy and the relevant carpal tunnel surgical release is the most common procedure in Hand Surgery. Open release of the transverse carpal ligament has traditionally been the gold standard of care for median nerve decompression, yet new endoscopic surgical techniques have emerged over
