Pressure changes in Guyon's canal after carpal tunnel release.

R H Ablove1, O J Moy, C A Peimer, D R Wheeler, E Diao.   

Abstract

We measured pressure changes in Guyon's canal and the carpal tunnel before and after endoscopic (11 cases) and open (10) carpal tunnel release. We found that release of the flexor retinaculum by endoscopic and open techniques measurably decreased pressure in both the carpal tunnel and Guyon's canal. This study provides an explanation for relief of ulnar tunnel syndrome symptoms following carpal tunnel release and may indicate that carpal tunnel release alone may be sufficient to provide symptomatic relief for most patients with carpal and ulnar tunnel syndromes.
