Carpal Tunnel Surgery – Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Surgery – Scottsdale & Phoenix, AZ

OVERVIEW

Relieving the painful symptoms of carpal tunnel is only one goal of our endoscopic release surgery for the condition.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE

There are 2 different surgeries performed to surgically treat carpal tunnel syndrome – open release surgery and endoscopic surgery. Either procedure takes about 60 – 90 minutes. For many of our patients, we perform the carpal surgery on 1 hand at a time.

TYPES OF SURGERIES

WHAT TO EXPECT

After your surgery, your hand will need to be bandaged for 5 – 7 days. Patients are advised to rest for 1 – 2 days. They can use their hand with some restrictions once the bandage is removed. Finger movements can be started from the next day, and light activities can be performed after a week. Soft tissue massages after 4 weeks help aid in a faster recovery.

IN RECOVERY

In recovery, your hand will need to be bandaged for 5 – 7 days. Make sure to continually wear your wrist splints. You can use your hand with some restrictions once the bandage is removed. Open release surgery takes more time to recover from than endoscopic surgery for the initial phase. However, in the long term, recovery duration is almost same. Finger movements can be started from the next day and light activities can be performed after a week. Soft tissue massages after 4 weeks help in faster recovery. Recovery takes about 6 weeks. No grasping, pinching, stressful task, or motor control exercise is allowed until that time.

OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

The carpal tunnel syndrome cannot be cured completely, but its symptoms can be alleviated and the success rate of this surgery is up to 90% or more. There are many clinics across the country that have specialists who perform this surgery with skill and expertise. Once the surgery is successfully completed, the chances of recurrence in the patient after years is rare. The surgery is not very complicated or time consuming, and in the hands of the best surgeons, such as Dr. Torabi, there is no reason to be fearful.
