Single surgeon series of outcomes of 897 consecutive endoscopic carpal tunnel releases stratified by disease severity

The safety and efficacy of multiple endoscopic carpal tunnel (eCTR) techniques have been established in the literature.1-3 High rates of symptomatic relief and low risk of complications are reported, similar to those seen with open CTR.2 A stratification of postoperative results and relief of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) based on objective pre-operative disease severity has not been established. This information would allow more individualized preoperative counselling.
