HAND, 2023
Background: Carpal tunnel release (CTR) surgery is the most common surgery billed to Medicare by hand surgeons. As such, the purpose of this study was to evaluate trends for CTR surgeries billed to Medicare from 2000 to 2020.

Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release
CSurgeries, 2016Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) was first described by Sir James Paget in 1854. Today, it is recognized as the most common upper extremity compressive neuropathy, occurring under the transverse carpal ligament of the wrist and causing median nerve symptoms. The compression can be idiopathic or can result from trauma or systemic illness.

Endoscopic carpal tunnel release
The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1992We have performed 149 consecutive one-portal and 152 consecutive two-portal endoscopic carpal tunnel release operations. Average time to cessation of preoperative symptoms was 15 days in both the one-portal and two-portal groups. The average time of return to work was 16 days in the one-portal group and 17 days in the two-portal group. The complication

Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release
World Neurosurgery, 2013arpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is currently the most common type of compression neuropathy, affecting C approximately 1% of the general population (2, 6). CTS results from compression of the median nerve at the level of the wrist. Diagnosis is determined on the basis of clinical symptoms, confirmed with electrophysiological studies.

Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release: Techniques, Controversies, and Comparison to Open Techniques.
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2022Endoscopic carpal tunnel release (ECTR) continues to rise in popularity as a treatment option for carpal tunnel syndrome. Numerous variations in technique and instrumentation currently exist, broadly classified into two-portal and single-portal ...

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.

COMPLICATIONS OF ENDOSCOPIC CARPAL TUNNEL RELEASE
Hand Clinics, 1995Carpal tunnel release has a high rate of success when the open or endoscopic technique is used. The reported complications of the endoscopic procedure have included incomplete release of the transverse carpal ligament and injury to the neurovascular structures or flexor tendons.

OBJECTIVE Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) presents bilaterally in nearly 60%-70% of affected patients. Bilateral carpal tunnel release (CTR) can be performed in a staged or simultaneous fashion.

Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release [PDF]
, 2017 While open carpal tunnel release provides excellent relief of median nerve compression, many patients complain of tenderness at the proximal palm incision for months after surgery. For over 25 years, endoscopic techniques have been available that move the incision off of the proximal palm to avoid or decrease this pillar pain. Proximal, distal, and two-
