Influence of Pronator Teres Release on Treatment of Median Nerve Compression Neuropathy

NCT01562860 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: PHASE2 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 100

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators are comparing two standard of care procedures which can be performed at the same time, or sequentially. The hypothesis being tested is whether simultaneous release of both the carpal Tunnel and the Pronator Teres results in a better outcome in terms of symptom relief and recurrence than Carpal Tunnel Release alone when signs and symptoms of both carpal tunnel and pronator Teres syndromes are present.

Conditions

  • Median Nerve Compression

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Pronator Teres Release

Surgical release of median nerve compression

PROCEDURE

dual compression release

Both the carpal tunnel compression and the pronator teres compression will be released on the same day.

PROCEDURE

dual compression release

both procedures will be done on the same day

PROCEDURE

median nerve release only

only the carpal tunnel compression is released
