This document discusses carpal tunnel syndrome, which is caused by compression of the median nerve as it passes through the carpal tunnel of the wrist. It can cause numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand. The presentation outlines the causes, clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment options for carpal tunnel syndrome, which include wrist splints, oral anti-inflammatory medications, local steroid injections, and carpal tunnel release surgery if conservative measures fail. The document provides details on physical exam findings and special tests like Tinel's and Phalen's maneuvers used to diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome.

2. Introduction
Also known as nerve compression syndrome
Compression of peripheral nerve
When nerve traverse fibro-osseous tunnel, risk of
entrapment and compression
Nerve compression
impairs epineural blood flow and axonal conduction
giving rise to symptoms
6. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Most common entrapment neuropathy
Compression of the median nerve at the wrist
Swelling Compression Ischemia of nerve
More common in women
Age group: 40–50 years
8. Causes
Inflammatory causes Rheumatoid arthritis
Wrist osteoarthritis
Post-traumatic causes Bone thickening after a
Colles' fracture
Endocrine causes Diabetes
Myxoedema
Acromegaly
Hypothyroidism
Pregnancy
Idiopathic commonest cause
9. Clinical Features
Pain and paraesthesia in the distribution of median
nerve in hand
Burning pain, tingling and numbness causing
patient to wake up at night
Relieving factor: hanging the arm over the side of
the bed or shaking the arm
11. Diagnosis
History
Motor examination
Wasting and weakness of the median- innervated hand
muscles (LOAF muscles)
L - First and second lumbricals
O - Opponens pollicis
A - Abductor pollicis brevis
F - Flexor pollicis brevis
13. Special Test
Tinel’s nerve percussion test
Gentle tapping over the median nerve in the carpal
tunnel region elicits tingling in the nerve distribution
Phalen’s wrist flexion test
Full flexion of the wrists for up to 60 seconds induce
tingling sensation
Electromyography
17. Wrist Splints & Physiotherapy
Light splints that prevent wrist flexion help those
with night pain or with pregnancy-related symptoms
Most effective when it is applied within three months
of the onset of symptoms
18. Oral medication
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
Orally administered corticosteroids
Prednisolone 20 mg per day for two weeks followed by
10 mg per day for two weeks
19. Failure of conservative therapy:
Long duration of symptoms (>10 months)
Age greater than 50
Constant paresthesias
Impaired two-point discrimination (>6 mm)
Positive Phalen's sign <30 seconds
Prolonged motor and sensory latencies demonstrated by
electrodiagnostic testing
20. Treatment
Oral glucocorticoid or injections: 10 to 20 mg of
lidocaine without epinephrine + 20 to 40 mg of
methylprednisolone acetate
Surgical: carpel tunnel release
22. Local Injection
Steroid injection into the carpal canal provides
temporary relief
Splinting is generally recommended after local
corticosteroid injection
If the first injection is successful, a repeat injection can be
considered after a few months
Surgery should be considered if a patient needs more
than two injections
23. Surgery
Partial or complete surgical division of flexor
retinaculum Carpal tunnel release
If symptoms are refractory to conservative measures or if
nerve conduction studies show severe entrapment
Relieves both compression and resulting symptoms
