A prospective study of anatomic variations of the median nerve and its relationship to the
surrounding structures was performed of 354 consecutive operations in 192 patients with …

Background: A possible complication of open, limited incision or endoscopic carpal tunnel
release is transection of the thenar branch of the median nerve or the superficial palmar …

Eight hundred twenty-one median nerves were retrospectively and prospectively reviewed
for variations during operations to treat carpal tunnel syndrome. Ninety-two cadaver median …

In the carpal tunnel there are the flexor muscle tendons, their sheaths, and the median
nerve. Because its walls are inflexible, any thickening of its components that reduce its area …

The median nerve was explored in 100 hands and the variations classified by the Lanz
system. Only 47.7% of hands showed the standard anatomy described in textbooks. Rare …

As documented by dissection of twelve cadaver hands, the palmar cutaneous branch of the
median nerve may be injured by a transverse incision at the wrist, while the terminal fibers of …

Two hundred seventy‐five consecutive carpal tunnel releases were reviewed to identify
anomalies of median nerve anatomy. High division of the median nerve was observed in …

PURPOSE: This was an intraoperative anatomical study to identify the prevalence of
variations in the motor branch of median nerve and to correlate these with the presence of a …

Motion of the median nerve was compared on an axial ultrasonographic image in the mid-
carpal tunnel in 30 wrists of 15 women with bilateral idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome and …

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a well‐known clinical entity. Release of the transverse
carpal ligament is considered to be the treatment of choice. Both open and endoscopic …
