Despite its high incidence and its reputation for simplicity and efficacy, carpal tunnel release does not invariably produce good results and dissatisfied patients are not infrequently encountered. Unsatisfactory results are due to inaccurate diagnosis and, all too frequently, iatrogenic surgical complications. Surgical technique plays an important role in the achievement of good quality results. Various technical points are controversial and are here discussed: the incision, the division of the retinaculum, neurolysis, repair of the transverse carpal ligament and postoperative management. Our views on the management of recurrence, postoperative sequelae and complications are outlined.
