[Palm creases and anatomy. Palmar print of 166 patients with surgically treated carpal tunnel syndrome].
The dermatoglyphics are genetically determined as well as anatomical variations are unique in every person. The following paper coordinates some variations in furrows of the hand with anatomical situations that can be found when operating a Carpal tunnel syndrome. In 166 patients the preoperative handprint was compared to the anatomy found. Some anatomical variations were found to have their expression in certain furrows.
