Abstract

Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common root canal pathology. The surgical treatment corresponds to a release of the median nerve by incision of the anterior annular ligament of the carpus by open surgical treatment or endoscopy. Knowledge of the normal anatomy and anatomical variations of the median nerve at the wrist is fundamental to avoiding complications in median nerve release in the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome. Through this work we will show the interest of knowledge of the anatomy of the median nerve as well as its anatomical variations in order to derive the main clinical applications and to avoid the risks associated with open or endoscopic surgery in the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome.
