Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release

AORN Journal, 1993
Endoscopic 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 ...

Endoscopic carpal tunnel release: A cadaveric study

Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic & Related Surgery, 1993
Endoscopic carpal tunnel release was performed on 13 fresh-frozen cadavers using the Agee 3-M "Inside Job" Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release System, by a surgeon specifically trained in the technique and with a large clinical experience. Independent dissections showed no inadvertent lacerations to nerves, vessels, or tendons. The superficial palmar arch,

Endoscopic carpal tunnel release: An atomic study

Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic & Related Surgery, 1993
Endoscopic carpal tunnel release has been shown to decrease postoperative recovery time in patients undergoing surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome. There is, however, some controversy concerning the safety and reliability of the procedure. We performed endoscopic carpal tunnel release utilizing the two portal technique described by Chow on 20 fresh ...
