什么是腕管综合征的真正内镜手术?--18年5 880例临床经验

腕管综合征是常见的卡压性周围神经病变,由正中神经在腕管内受到卡压引起.它的手术治疗方法在于从掌侧切开腕管,减压正中神经.术式有最初非开放的盲切手术、开放手术、以及利用内镜手术(主要分为单切口和双切口法两类)等.笔者在1986年首创了应用USE (universal subcutaneous endoscope)系统单切口法治疗腕管综合征,力求创伤最小、最安全的手术方式.USE系统由透明闭锁外套管和30°斜视内镜组成.这是真正意义上的内镜手术,与内镜辅助下的手术在视野、绝对禁忌证等多方面都不同.笔者术中在局麻下,透过透明外套管在内镜直视下在腕管内用钩刀或改良方法于腕管外用推刀彻底切断腕横韧带和DHFFR(distal holdfast fibers of the flexor retinaculum),达到腕管开放减压的目的,并可于术中通过透光实验及腕管压力测定等方法判断腕管是否完全开放以保证手术效果.另外,笔者还在腕管综合征的诊断方面,新创一种神经诱发体征,命名为Okutsu Test.它的阳性率高于Phalen Test,而且在正常人群中没有发现假阳性.然而最准确的腕管综合征诊断方法是腕管压力测定.通过正常对照,确定在腕管综合征术前休息位腕管内压力高于15 mm Hg,握拳位是腕管内压力高于135 mm Hg的诊断指标.采用腕管压力测定可以不仅可以用于诊断、还可以在术中测定判断腕管减压程度.笔者应用USE系统在18年中进行了5 880例腕管综合征的治疗,经过最少6月、平均2.4年的随访,近90%的患者在术后24周痛、触觉恢复正常,电生理检查和MRI检查结果也提示了良好的临床效果.并发症的发生率为0.34%,包括假性动脉瘤、局部血肿形成、暂时性尺神经麻痹等,无屈肌腱和神经损伤.本文介绍的应用USE系统取前臂切口内镜下治疗腕管综合征的方法是真正的内镜下微创手术,对健康组织损伤最小、并发症发生危险性最低,治疗效果满意可靠.

Bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome with anomalous palmaris profundus tendons

Abstract

This report presents the case of a 44-year-old man who presented with elective bilateral carpal tunnel decompression. At the operation, he was found to have bilateral palmaris profundus tendons within the carpal tunnel, impinging on the median nerve. In releasing both carpal tunnels, the patient's symptoms were alleviated and there was regain of full function. There have been very few documented cases of these anomalous tendons implicated in carpal tunnel syndrome and this case highlights how such anatomical variations are important in the surgical approach to carpal tunnel decompression.     

Clinical diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome: old tests-new concepts

BackgroundThe diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) continues to be neurophysiologically and clinically controversial. Earlier data concluding that the higher prevalence of persons with symptoms suggestive of CTS but without evidence of median mononeuropathy highlights the need for a better understanding of the underlying pathophysiology and natural history of CTS to provide a less empirical foundation for diagnosis and clinical management.ObjectiveTo examine the relationship between the clinical manifestations of CTS with the outcome of the diagnostic tools (nerve conduction tests and ultrasonography), and its implication for clinical practice.MethodsTwo-hundred and thirty-two patients (69 male and 163 female, ages ranging between 20 and 91 years) with CTS manifestations and 182 controls were included in this study. Diagnosis of CTS was based on the American Academy of Neurology clinical diagnostic criteria. All patients and controls completed a patient oriented questionnaire, were subjected to clinical testing for provocative tests for carpal tunnel syndrome (Tinel's, Phalen's, Reverse Phalen's and carpal tunnel compression tests), blood check for secondary causes of carpal tunnel syndrome, nerve conduction testing as well ultrasonographic assessment of the carpal tunnel and median nerve.ResultsOne-hundred and seventy-seven out of 232 (76.3%) had abnormal nerve conduction studies. Forearm symptoms and tenosynovitis confirmed by US examination were found in 51.3% of cases. No significant difference was found on comparing anthropometric measures in the affected hands to the control group hands. A higher prevalence of positive Phalen's and CT compression were found in patients suffering from tenosynovitis regardless of their nerve conduction study results. Sensitivity of Tinel's, Phalen's, Reverse Phalen's and carpal tunnel compression tests was higher for the diagnosis of tenosynovitis than for the diagnosis of CTS (Tinel, 46% vs. 30%; Phalen's, 92% vs. 47%; Reverse Phalen's, 75% vs. 42%; carpal tunnel compression test, 95% vs. 46%). Similarly, higher specificity of these tests was found with tenosynovitis than CTS.ConclusionThe results of this study revealed that Tinel's, Phalen's, Reverse Phalen's and carpal tunnel compression tests are more sensitive, as well as being specific tests for the diagnosis of tenosynovitis of the flexor muscles of the hand, rather than being specific tests for carpal tunnel syndrome and can be used as an indicator for medical management of the condition.     

Hand numbness and carpal tunnel syndrome after volar plating of distal radius fracture

We report the incidence of late onset post-operative carpal tunnel syndrome (late carpal tunnel syndrome) and late median nerve neuropathy after volar plating of distal radius fracture by conducting a retrospective study on volar plating for distal radius fracture performed during 2002 to 2006. Two hundred eighty-two volar plating were performed for acute distal radius fracture after exclusion. Post-operative hand numbness occurred in 24 patients of which nine had carpal tunnel syndrome. Thus, the incidence of late carpal tunnel syndrome was 3.2% (9/282). Of the eight (8/24, 33%) patients with post-operative hand numbness that failed to respond to conservative treatment, five had carpal tunnel release and three had neurolysis of median nerve at distal forearm. All had clinical improvement except in one patient. The incidence of late carpal tunnel syndrome after volar plating of distal radius in the present series is similar to the prevalence of carpal tunnel syndrome in general population. The incidence is low compared with other series, regardless of treatment method (conservative treatment, volar or dorsal plating). The outcome of post-operative hand numbness is generally favourable.     

Carpal tunnel syndrome associated with long-term hemodialysis: case report

Since Warren and Otieno reported carpal tunnel syndrome in patients on intermittent hemodialysis in 1975, a number of related reports have been published. However, there are few reports associated with neurosurgery about carpal tunnel syndrome in patients on long term hemodialysis. We reviewed this disease and reported our case. We treated a patient who complained of bilateral hand numbness and atrophy of the right thenar muscle. He had been suffering from chronic renal failure and had been treated with hemodialysis for ten years. We diagnosed carpal tunnel syndrome based on the findings concerning Tinel's sign, Phalen test, and the conduction velocity of the median nerve. We performed decompression surgery of the median nerve. However, although there was no recovery from thenar muscle atrophy, there was improvement of hand numbness. Histologically, amyloid deposits within the hypertrophic transverse carpal ligament on the right side, could be found but on the left side where the internal shunt had been made amyloid deposits were absent. The reason why patients receiving long term hemodialysis develop carpal tunnel syndrome is controversial, but it seems that beta 2 microglobulin may play an important role in developing carpal tunnel syndrome in hemodialysis patients. This was reported by Gejyo in 1985. There may be uremic and/or diabetic neuropathy in these patients, and these neuropathies may be responsible for the more rapid deterioration and poorer surgical results in carpal tunnel syndrome associated with hemodialysis than in idiopathic cases. It is most important that carpal tunnel syndrome has to be diagnosed early and that surgical decompression is performed while the disease is in its early stage.

Lipofibromatous hamartoma of the median nerve in patients with macrodactyly: diagnosis and treatment of a rare disease causing carpal tunnel syndrome

Lipofibromatous hamartoma is a very rare benign peripheral nerve tumour. It is mostly encountered in the proximal extremities of young adults, involving the median nerve in the majority of cases. We present two patients with macrodactyly and carpal tunnel syndrome caused by lipofibromatous hamartoma of the median nerve and discuss diagnosis and treatment of the disease. A 10-year-old girl with a congenital progressive macrodactyly of her right index finger presented with a slowly growing mass in her right palm and pain and numbness, along with motor and sensory deficits in the median nerve distribution. Treatment consisted of carpal tunnel release, epineurolysis and partial excision of the fibrofatty tissue. The second patient, a 25-year-old man presented with a swelling in his left palm and findings compatible with carpal tunnel syndrome. Intraoperatively, the lesion presented as sausage-shaped enlargement of the median nerve by fibrofatty tissue. After carpal tunnel release, a partial excision of the mass with epineurolysis was performed. In both patients, histology showed nerve bundles separated by abundant fibrofatty tissue. In the girl, a proliferation of dysplastic perineurial cells could be observed. The suspected diagnosis for patients with macrodactyly and clinical signs of carpal tunnel syndrome should be lipofibromatous hamartoma. A carefully taken history, physical examination, X-ray, and MRI are important for its correct diagnosis. The surgical management remains controversial. Treatment should include decompression of the median nerve at points of compression, partial excision of the fibrofatty tissue, and debulking of soft tissue. In some cases, an epineurolysis can be additionally performed.     

Effectiveness of mini-transverse incision versus traditional reduced technique in the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome. A prospective cohort study

BackgroundCarpal tunnel syndrome has attracted attention as an occupational disease due to the dramatic increase on its magnitude, and its prevalence in the general population, who's has been reported from a 0.6 to 3.4%. Currently, there are various techniques for its approach. However, there is great controversy when it comes to establishing which of the methods is the most beneficial. The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy of the mini-transverse incision against the traditional longitudinal technique in treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome.Materials and methodsA series of cases is presented, prospectively included, of patients with a diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome, who are beneficiaries of a government hospital. We present a series of cases with a diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome, which were performed with two different techniques. Both techniques were evaluated by comparing the recovery and work reintegration times, as well as the decrease in pain and the absence of complications.ResultsA total of 8 patients operated with a minimal incision and 9 with a traditional reduced incision were studied. Significant differences were shown in the days taken to return to work, with a median of 17.5 (q25-q75 14–21) days for mini-transverse incision group and of 28 (q25-q75 21–28) days for the longitudinal traditional incision group (p = 0.002). Likewise, differences were obtained in the visual analogue pain scale during the first week of evaluation 4 vs 7 (p = 0.000), in contrast to complications where there were no differences at all.ConclusionThe results obtained corroborate a greater efficacy of the mini-transverse incision technique, in reducing disability times. This favors the health institution to reduce the costs of rehabilitation and for the patient to have a prompt work reintegration. It is suggested to strengthen the scientific evidence that supports the use of this technique by exploring other areas such as functional status or long-term benefits.
