Overview of Carpal Tunnel Release
Carpal Tunnel Release is a surgical procedure designed to relieve pressure on the median nerve in the wrist. This pressure occurs when the carpal tunnel, a narrow passageway in the wrist, becomes compressed or inflamed. The surgery helps restore normal hand function and reduces pain, numbness, and tingling in the fingers.
Surgical Approach and Procedure of Carpal Tunnel Release
During Carpal Tunnel Release surgery, the surgeon makes a small incision in the palm or wrist to access the transverse carpal ligament. This ligament is carefully cut to release pressure on the median nerve, allowing improved blood flow and nerve function. The surgery can be performed using either an open technique or a minimally invasive endoscopic approach. Specialized instruments such as retractors, scissors, and endoscopic systems are used for precision and minimal tissue damage. The incision is then closed with sutures, and a soft dressing is applied. After the procedure, patients usually experience gradual improvement in grip strength and hand movement.
