The Epidemiology of Carpal Tunnel Revision Over a 1-Year Follow-Up Period

CONCLUSIONS: This study identified a rate of revision CTR of 4.8% within the first postoperative year. Both the surgical technique and patient-specific risk factors influence the likelihood of requiring revision surgery. Notably, an endoscopic approach is associated with a higher risk of revision surgery.TYPE OF STUDY/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Prognostic II.PMID:34059387 | DOI:10.1016/j.jhsa.2021.04.003
