Carpal tunnel release: Safe and simple identification of the flexor retinaculum based on superficial anatomical landmarks
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Clinical Anatomy"
DOI: 10.1002/ca.22865
Abstract: The aim of our study was to project the borders of the flexor retinaculum (FR) onto superficial landmarks since its insufficient splitting is the most common reason for persistence of symptoms after carpal tunnel release.… read more here.

Bifid median nerve as an anatomical risk factor for carpal tunnel syndrome: A meta‐analysis
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Clinical Anatomy"
DOI: 10.1002/ca.23900
Abstract: As the median nerve enters the carpal tunnel, it is a single nerve that soon bifurcates into lateral and medial branches into the hand. If the bifurcation is proximal to the carpel tunnel, a bifid… read more here.

Carpal tunnel ultrasound: is the “safe zone” on the ulnar side of the median nerve really avascular?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "European Radiology"
DOI: 10.1007/s00330-019-06416-0
Abstract: Introduction Numerous publications have studied the regional anatomy of the carpal tunnel to define a “safe zone” to reduce the risk of perioperative neurovascular complications. This zone, located between the ulnar neurovascular bundle and the… read more here.
