The carpal tunnel is an elaborate biomechanical structure whose pathomechanics plays an
essential role in the development of carpal tunnel syndrome. The purpose of this article is to …

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a common and disabling condition of the hand caused by
entrapment of the median nerve at the level of the wrist. It is the commonest entrapment …

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 Morphology of the carpal tunnel changes with varying wrist postures and
compressive forces applied to the wrist. These changes may affect the morphology and …

The carpal tunnel is a tightly bounded space, making the median nerve prone to
compression and eventually leading to carpal tunnel syndrome. Carpal tunnel release …

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 …

The transverse carpal ligament (TCL) is a significant constituent of the wrist structure and
forms the volar boundary of the carpal tunnel. It serves biomechanical and physiological …

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) …

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 …
