Abstract
Ultrasonography (US) is a useful and economical tool that can help diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome by measuring the cross-sectional area (CSA), of the median nerve, at the wrist. This is a longitudinal case study evaluating the measurements of the right and left median nerves pre and post carpal tunnel (CT) release surgery. The US measurements of the median nerves were obtained preoperatively, one week postoperatively, and one month postoperatively on a patient who had same-day bilateral CT release surgery. The sonographic findings showed a decrease in the CSA of the median nerves bilaterally.
