pubmed-article:1568672 | pubmed:abstractText | The authors present a follow-up of thirty five patients with carpal tunnel syndrome, who had undergone surgical treatment including synovialectomy of the flexor tendons. Beyond the clinical findings, pre- and postoperative comparison of the electromyograms, conduction velocities and an exact analysis of the lipid disorders were studied. These findings and the results of the histological analysis of the tenosynovial membrane are evaluated with special regard to the etiology of the carpal tunnel syndrome. | lld:pubmed |
