  • Title: Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release: Indications, Technique, and Outcomes.
    Author: Karamanos E, Jillian BQ, Person D.
    Journal: Orthop Clin North Am; 2020 Jul; 51(3):361-368. PubMed ID: 32498954.
    Abstract:
    Carpal tunnel is the most common peripheral compressive neuropathy. Nonoperative management may provide temporary alleviation of symptoms, but in most cases surgical decompression is warranted. There are a multitude of approaches ranging from open release under general anesthesia to wide awake in-office endoscopic carpal tunnel release. The present article describes the technical considerations for the single incision, antegrade approach to endoscopic carpal tunnel release using the SEGWay system and technique.
