简要总结
Carpal tunnel syndrome is most common peripheral neuropathy. Earlier surgery was preferred over conservative therapies in severe CTS cases. However there has been a recent shift towards minimally invasive and USG guided hydrodissection procedure which has shown positive long- term outcomes in CTS patients. No literature is available so far comparing the two treatment options . Hence this study is planned to compare effectiveness of USG guided hydrodissection and surgical carpal tunnel release for treatment of CTS.
