Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of ultrasonography-guided hydrodissection technique with 5% dextrose and dexamethasone injectates when applied in different volumes in the treatment of mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome.

Conditions

  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
  • Median Nerve Entrapment
  • Entrapment Neuropathy

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Ultrasound-guided median nerve hydrodissection

Injected wrist will be supinated and slightly dorsiflexed. The transducer of the ultrasound will be placed transversely at the proximal carpal inlet. After sterile preparation, a 22 gauge needle will be inserted using the short-axis technique, in-plane ulnar approach. During hydrodissection, separation of either between the median nerve and flexor retinaculum or between the median nerve and the underlying flexor tendons will be visually confirmed.
