Long-Term Outcomes and Mortality Following Carpal Tunnel Release in Patients Older Than 80 Years of Age
2021, World NeurosurgeryCitation Excerpt :Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common compressive neuropathy of the upper extremity and affects more than 400 per 100,000 people each year.1 Surgical release of the transverse carpal ligament is an effective treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome with durable symptom improvement in long-term follow-up.2,3 Favorable results have been shown with both open4-8 and endoscopic9-11 carpal tunnel release (CTR) in the elderly patient population with short-term follow-up.
