Summary

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common peripheral entrapment neuropathy with involving compression of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel. The technique of perineural injection therapy (PIT) is now commonly used for peeling the nerve from surrounding soft tissue (called nerve hydrodissection), which may help to reduce neuro-inflammation, ischemic damage and allow impulse transmission.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound guided insulin plus Sodium Hyaluronate injection in reducing symptoms caused by carpal tunnel syndrome.
