Ultrasound-Guided Curved Needle Thread Carpal Tunnel Release: Efficacy and Safety of a Single-Center, Single-Arm Clinical Trial

Sponsor: Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University

Summary

Carpal tunnel syndrome is a set of symptoms and signs caused by compression of the median nerve within the carpal tunnel. The prevalence in the general population is about 3.72%, with a rising trend, making it the most common peripheral nerve entrapment syndrome. Compared to conservative treatment, surgical treatment has definite efficacy and lower recurrence rates, making it the ultimate choice for relieving median nerve compression. However, open surgery has disadvantages such as large trauma, long postoperative recovery period, and scar formation, while wrist arthroscopic surgery, although minimally invasive, is technically challenging, requires expensive specialized equipment, and has low cost-effectiveness, limiting its clinical application. Therefore, based on clinical and life experience, our team innovatively developed the "Ultrasound-guided Needle Release of the Transverse Carpal Ligament." This technique avoids the risks of large trauma and scar formation associated with traditional open surgery, significantly shortens surgical and postoperative recovery times, and is more minimally invasive and cost-effective compared to wrist arthroscopic surgery, thus having high clinical value for promotion. This study aims to validate the effectiveness and safety of this innovative procedure through a single-arm interventional clinical study, providing a theoretical basis for further clinical application.
