    We evaluated a comprehensive telemedicine pathway for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). Our primary aim was to compare telemedicine and in-person administration of the six item CTS-6 instrument (CTS-6) in patients undergoing carpal tunnel release (CTR) and to determine whether surgical plans determined via telemedicine were altered by in-person assessments. We additionally aimed to assess agreement…

    We report a case of heterotopic ossification formation 6 years after a revision carpal tunnel release in a 46-year-old woman, causing new-onset mixed ulnar and median nerve compression symptoms. The patient underwent excision of the heterotopic ossification mass along with decompression of the median and ulnar nerves, and postoperative radiation. Four years after treatment, the patient was…

    Corticosteroid injections (CSIs) are commonly used in carpal tunnel syndrome; however, recent literature has demonstrated risk of postoperative infection associated with preoperative CSIs in other orthopedic fields. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship of CSIs and postoperative infection following carpal tunnel release (CTR).

    Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) is a gram-positive, anaerobic, commensal organism found on nonglabrous skin, including the face, scalp, chest, and axilla. Recently, P. acnes is one of the more frequently recognized organisms causing postoperative infections in implant surgery of the shoulder, second to only Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), yet it is a rare postoperative complication of the…

    Wide-awake local anesthesia with no tourniquet (WALANT) as a walk-in procedure has become a standard technique in open carpal tunnel release (OCTR) and continues to replace the long-established intravenous regional anesthesia with a tourniquet (IVRA/”bier-block”) in our clinic. The aim of this study was to compare patient satisfaction with either WALANT or IVRA/”bier-block” and define subgroups…
