Carpal tunnel surgery

Carpal tunnel release surgery is a widely performed minimally invasive procedure aimed at relieving symptoms and improving hand function in carpal tunnel syndrome. During the surgery, the transverse carpal ligament is divided, creating more space and relieving pressure on the median nerve. This procedure is known for its effectiveness in providing long-term relief from pain, numbness, and weakness in the hand and fingers. It allows for quicker recovery and restoration of normal hand function, enhancing the overall quality of life for individuals with carpal tunnel syndrome.

How does an orthopedist diagnose Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?

To diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome, an orthopedic doctor conducts a comprehensive evaluation. This includes reviewing the patient's medical history, performing a thorough physical examination, and assessing symptoms such as pain, numbness, and weakness. The doctor may also utilize nerve conduction studies or electromyography to measure nerve function and determine the extent of nerve compression. In some cases, imaging tests like X-rays or ultrasound may be used to rule out other possible causes. With these findings, the orthopedic doctor can provide an accurate diagnosis and suggest suitable treatment options tailored to the individual's needs.

How is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome treated?

Carpal tunnel syndrome is a surgical treatment used to alleviate pressure on the median nerve in the wrist.. It is typically done through a small incision in the palm or by utilizing endoscopic techniques. During the surgery, the surgeon carefully cuts the transverse carpal ligament, which widens the carpal tunnel and reduces compression on the nerve. This procedure allows for improved nerve function and alleviation of carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms such as pain, numbness, and weakness in the hand and fingers. The choice of surgical approach depends on the individual case and the surgeon's preference and expertise.
