A new diagnostic morphological parameter for the Carpal tunnel syndrome: The palmaris longus tendon cross-sectional area

Abstract: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is correlated with increased intracarpal canal pressure (ICP). The effect of palmaris longus tendon (PLT) loading on ICP is documented in previous researches. PLT loading induces the greatest absolute increase in ICP. Therefore, to analyze the connection between the PLT and CTS, we newly made the measurement of the PLT cross-sectional area (PLTCSA). We assumed that PLTCSA is a reliable diagnostic parameter in the CTS. PLTCSA measurement data were acquired from 21 patients with CTS,… Show more
