Abstract

Aim: Various surgical treatment alternatives exist for carpal tunnel syndrome which is the the entrapment of the median nerve at the wrist level. In this study two different surgical techniques were comparatively evaluated in terms of time needed for postoperative follow-up, complications, clinical and electrodiagnostic improvement. Method: Surgical decompression utilising the standard technique was used in 12 hands of the 11 patients in the first group and the mini-incision technique was employed in 12 hands of the 10 patients in the second group. Results: No statistical difference in any one of the above mentioned parameters was found with the X2 and Fisher's exact tests. Conclusion: Thus, we conclude that neither of the two techniques utilised for carpal tunnel syndrome surgery can be considered superior to the other.

Özet

Amaç: Median sinirin el bileği düzeyindeki tuzak nöropatisi olan karpal tünel sendromunun (KTS) sağaltımında farklı cerrahi teknikler bildirilmiştir. Bu çalışmada KTS olgularında 2 farklı cerrahi teknik kullanılarak uygulanan sağaltımın sonuçları karşılaştırılmıştır. Yöntem: İlk guruptaki 11 olgunun 12 eline standart teknik ile cerrahi dekompresyon uygulanmış, ikinci guruptaki 10 olgunun 12 elinde ise mini insizyon yöntemi uygulanmıştır. Bulgular: Postoperatif izlem süresi, komplikasyon sıklığı, klinik ve elektronörofizyolojik bulgular yönünden değerlendirildiğinde iki gurup arasında X2 ve Fisher'in exact testleri ile istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark olmadığı belirlenmiştir. Sonuç: Bu sonuçlar bize KTS cerrahisinde kullanılan standart ve mini insizyon tekniklerinin birbirlerine üstünlüklerinin olmadığını düşündürmüştür.
