Background The carpal tunnel is a fibro-osseous structure containing the median nerve and
flexor tendons. Its cross-sectional area has been shown to increase during compressive …

The purpose of this study was to investigate the morphological changes of the carpal arch
and median nerve during the application of radiounlarly directed compressive force across …

Background Carpal tunnel syndrome is a compression neuropathy at the wrist associated
with compromised median nerve mobility. The purpose of this study was to investigate the …

Study design Cross-sectional study. Background The carpal tunnel is a clinically important
fibro-osseous conduit for the median nerve and associated tendons. It is mechanically …

Introduction The carpal tunnel is a clinically important fibro-osseous conduit for the median
nerve and associated tendons. It is mechanically dynamic, such that the dimensions of the …

Mechanics of carpal tunnel soft tissue, such as fat, muscle and transverse carpal ligament
(TCL), around the median nerve may render the median nerve vulnerable to compression …

Background Owing to the compressive nature of the neuropathy, patients with carpal tunnel
syndrome (CTS) have prolonged distal motor latency (DML), sensory nerve latency (SNL) …

To assess the biomechanical effect of carpal tunnel release (CTR), we evaluated the
deformation and displacement patterns of the median nerve before and after CTR in carpal …

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of flexor retinaculum
division (simulated carpal tunnel release) on the relative motion of flexor tendon …

BACKGROUND: Carpal tunnel morphology plays an essential role in the etiology and
treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome. The purpose of this study was to observe the …
