Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common work-related injury that has become a major cause of disability. The causes are varied, and prevention is the goal in the workplace. For established cases of CTS, conservative measures such as splinting and medication are the primary treatment with surgery an option when conservative treatment fails.

Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common compressive neuropathy of the upper extremity. As a result of median nerve compression, the patient reports pain, weakness, and paresthesias in the hand and digits. The etiology of this condition is multifactorial; anatomic, systemic, and occupational factors have all been implicated.

Ultrasound (US) of the carpal tunnel adds value to the usual electrophysiology diagnosis by confirming doubtful results or evaluating patients who do not improve after surgery. US sometimes provides the surgeon or the referring physician with important information about normal variants or common or even rare causes of the nerve compression. The size of

CTS is a common upper extremity problem that has an increasing incidence and poorly understood causes. Radiographs and electrodiagnostic tests are helpful, but the diagnosis remains based on clinical symptoms and signs. The several sites of median nerve compression must be considered. Splinting and steroid injections are often effective.

Carpal tunnel syndrome is an entrapment median neuropathy affecting up to 1 in 20 individuals. Owing to recent NHS cuts, it has now been classified as a low priority procedure. This article discusses the diagnosis and management of this common clinical condition.

Sir James Paget (1854) was the first to describe the clinical features of CTS. His first patient was a man who developed pain and impaired sensation in the hand from the trauma of a cord drawn tightly around his wrist. In a second case, a tardy median nerve palsy was a consequence of a distal radius fracture; this patient improved with wrist ...

ERIPHERAL NERVES may be affected by a variety of injuries. If a peripheral nerve is injured in a specific location as the result of a mechanical irritation by some anatomical phenomenon, the condition is called an entrapment neuropathy. This type of nerve injury has been described by the term neuropraxia’ to characterize absence of action in an ...

The clinical picture of the carpal tunnel syndrome is reviewed, and its relationship to acroparaesthesia is discussed. Attention is drawn to the value of splinting the wrist as both a diagnostic and therapeutic measure.
