[Pitfalls of endoscopic carpal tunnel release].
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to evaluate the causes of failed endoscopic carpal tunnel release (CTR) in order to detect potentially hazardous operative steps. The intraoperative findings of 10 microsurgically revised cases were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS From January 1999 to October 2001, ten patients underwent open revision surgery after being referred because of failed ...
متن کاملPalmar uniportal extrabursal endoscopic carpal tunnel release.
A new technique of endoscopic carpal tunnel release using a 1.5-cm longitudinal palmar incision was used in 280 cases. The incision allows identification of the superficial palmar arch as well as the median nerve and its branches. A new knife/sleeve device that attaches to a standard 4-mm endoscope was created to simplify the procedure. The flexor retinaculum is endoscopically divided proximall...
متن کاملDelayed Improvement after Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release
OBJECTIVE In most patients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), pain and/or paresthesia disappeared or decreased in a month after endoscopic carpal tunnel release (ECTR).

متن کاملEndoscopic versus open carpal tunnel release in bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome. A prospective, randomised, blinded assessment.
The advantages and disadvantages of endoscopic compared with open carpal tunnel release are controversial. We have performed a prospective, randomised, blinded assessment in a district general hospital in order to determine if there was any demonstrable advantage in undertaking either technique. Twenty-five patients with confirmed bilateral idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome were randomised to u...
متن کاملAdequacy and long-term prognosis of endoscopic carpal tunnel release.
Forty-one hands of 37 patients with idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome treated by endoscopic carpal tunnel release (ECTR) were followed up for more than one year after surgery. Surgical results were evaluated using Kelly's criteria, the Semmes-Weinstein test, the static and moving 2-point discrimination tests, tip-pinch strength, and motor and sensory nerve conduction studies. Clinical results, ...
