Summary

To compare the incisionless thread carpal tunnel release with the standard mini-open carpal tunnel release (standard of care) in patients with bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome. Patients with bilateral CTS will have one side released with incisionless thread carpal tunnel release and the contralateral side released with the mini-open carpal tunnel release. The investigators hypothesize that the incisionless thread carpal tunnel release (TCTR) will be no different than the standard mini-open release (MOR) with regard to symptom improvement and safety and will be less painful, result in quicker return to work and will be less costly.
