Antiplatelet therapy is often instituted after cardiovascular or neurological ischemic events. In general, discontinuation of the antiplatelet medication for several days is warranted previous to surgery. However, discontinuation can lead to ischemic events. For some forms of surgery, the risks of an ischemic event, and especially, its consequences do not outweigh the benefit of discontinuation of the antiplatelet therapy. Retrospective analysis was done of a cohort of patients treated for carpal tunnel syndrome with special emphasis on postoperative hemorrhage in combination with antiplatelet medication.
