Abstract

Objectives: Racquet using is a risk factor for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). Ultrasonography (US) has been used for diagnosis of CTS, recently. We aimed to determine the possible CTS related effects of tennis training on median nerve by US.Patients and Methods: Thirty two voluntary students who had not played any racquet sports before and had no symptoms of CTS were included in the study. Participants were examined for CTS and their dominant and non-dominant hands underwent US before and after 14 weeks of tennis training. The cross-sectional area of the median nerve of each participant was measured at the carpal tunnel proximal, inlet, and outlet by US.Results: There was no significant increase related to CTS in measurement of the cross- sectional area of the median nerve of dominant and non dominant hands at all three levels and also symptoms and physical examinations of participants for CTS were negative after tennis training.Conclusion: We did not observe any significant damage in median nerve related to CTS at the end of the 14 weeks of tennis training. Further prospective studies with larger number of patients in a longer time period are needed to demonstrate early changes of the median nerve pointing CTS in tennis sports by US.

Özet

Amaç: Raket kullanımı karpal tünel sendromu (KTS) için bir risk faktörüdür. Son zamanlarda ultrasonografi (US) KTS' nin tanısı için kullanılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada US kullanarak tenis eğitiminin, mediyan sinirde muhtemel KTS ile ilişkili etkilerini belirlemeyi amaçladık.Hastalar ve Metod: Daha önce raket sporları ile uğraşmayan ve KTS şikayetleri olmayan 32 gönüllü öğrenci çalışmaya dahil edildi. Katılımcılar 14 haftalık tenis eğitimi öncesinde ve sonrasında KTS açısından muayene edildi ve dominant ve dominant olmayan elleri US ile değerlendirildi. Her bir katılımcının mediyan sinirinin kesitsel alanı karpal tünelin girişinde, içinde ve dış kısmında ölçüldü.Bulgular: Tenis eğitimi sonrasında tüm seviyelerde dominant ve dominant olmayan ellerin mediyan sinir kesitsel alanında anlamlı artış yoktu ve katılımcıların fizik muayene bulguları ve şikayetleri KTS açısından negatifti.Sonuçlar: On dört haftalık tenis eğitimi sonunda mediyan sinirde KTS ile ilişkili belirgin hasar tesbit etmedik. US ile tenis sporunda mediyan sinirde CTS' yi işaret eden erken değişiklikleri göstermek için daha uzun süreli ve daha fazla sayıda hasta katılımlı çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
