title: [Treatment of post-traumatic carpal tunnel syndrome].
abstract: Posttraumatic genesis of carpal tunnel syndrome was found to rank much lower on the list of incidence than idiopathic genesis. It accounted for 15 per cent of the authors' patients. Good results were obtained from early detection and atraumatic surgery, using microsurgical techniques. Poor long-time results can be avoided by careful handling of R. muscularis and R. palmaris in carpal ligament splitting and stringent observance of indications for epifascicular and intrafascicular neurolysis.
