Carpal tunnel syndrome: long-term nerve conduction studies in 261 hands Síndrome do tunel do carpo: estudo evolutivo de parâmetros de condução nervoso em 261 mãos

OBJECTIVE: To compare a long-term carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) on nerve conduction studies (NCS) in hands treated non-surgically. METHOD: We retrospectively selected 261 symptomatic CTS hands (166 patients), all of them confirmed by NCS. In all cases, at least 2 NCS were performed in an interval gre...
