title: [The carpal tunnel syndrome. Indication, technic and results following epineural and interfascicular neurolysis].
abstract: In the advanced stage of the carpal tunnel syndrome with apparently "irreversible" loss of motor function and sensibility, epineural and interfascicular neurolysis has been recommended as an idjunct to the conventional decompression of the median nerve. Nevertheless the literature is lacking in data concerning recovery of motor function after operation. In addition to clinical examination, histological and electromyographic data are proveded to demonstrate the histo-pathological changes and the late results after neurolysis. Indications for the technique of this more radical operative procedure as well as late results are described.
