Tinel's sign in the diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome.

P Seror1.   

Abstract

A positive Tinel's sign was found in 63% of patients with electrophysiologically proved carpal tunnel syndrome. However, Tinel's sign was also positive in 45% of control patients. It is therefore concluded that the sign is of no diagnostic value in individual patients with suspected carpal tunnel syndrome.
