“… 8 Although there are many different causes of ACTS, they all have the same pathophysiology in common, which is a decrease in epineural blood flow, leading to dysfunction of the median nerve and thus to the need for urgent surgical decompression. 1 If carpal tunnel release is performed early, the nerve often fully recovers; however, the longer the delay, the higher the risk of permanent nerve injury. 1 Although most of this patient's function did return, she had yet to regain her full function even 1 month after surgery.…”

“…Acute carpal tunnel syndrome (ACTS) from an infected source is rare because most cases are traumatic in nature. 1 Case reports of ACTS secondary to feline bites are thought to result from the long, thin teeth puncturing the carpal tunnel and then trapping the bacteria within. 2 However, ACTS from dog bites is exceedingly rare.…”

“…Dadas las diferencias y la posibilidad de eventos adversos con la cirugía, el manejo inicial no quirúrgico es respaldado por la evidencia y la liberación quirúrgica se considera para pacientes con síntomas severos o persistentes. (5,21) La alta prevalencia del STC, sus efectos sobre la calidad de vida y el costo que implica la enfermedad hacen importante identificar las prioridades de investigación. Los investigadores deberían examinar cuándo y para quién el tratamiento no quirúrgico es una elección efectiva.…”

“…El propio túnel es atravesado por 10 estructuras, nueve tendones y el nervio mediano. (5) FISIOPATOLOGIA La literatura disponible ha indicado una combinación de varios mecanismos fisiopatológicos en STC. Estos mecanismos están interactuando e incluyen el aumento de la presión en el túnel, lesión de la microcirculación del nervio mediano, lesiones de la vaina de mielina y el axón, compresión del tejido conectivo del nervio mediano e hipertrofia del tejido sinovial.…”
