ABSTRACT

The carpal tunnel syndrome is caused by increased pressure on the median nerve at the wrist. Generating venous stasis, increased vascular permeability, edema and fibrosis followed nerve, continuing degeneration of the myelin sheath to the interruption of nerve conduction occur. Variable causes the carpal tunnel syndrome over whites is presented, with an average of 53 years old, with ratio 3-10 women for every man. On labor issues, prolonged postures in extreme flexion or extension of the wrist, the repetitive use of the flexor muscles, and vibration exposure are some of the risk factors for presentation. The diagnosis is clinical, supported by nerve conduction studies and image. For carpal tunnel syndrome there are different treatments, ranging from resting splints, use of medications taken and infiltration with corticosteroids, to surgery, which can be used conventional open surgery or endoscopic techniques to the opening of the flexor retinaculum carpal.
