Abstract :Carpal tunnel syndrome secondary to space occupying lesion is a relatively rare condition. Median nerve compression secondary to carpal osteophyte is extremely rare. We report a case of carpal tunnel syndrome due to osteophytic bony projection in the carpal tunnel in a 54-year-old man with antecedent traumatic wrist injury before 20 years. To our knowledge, this is the second reported case. Complete excision of osteophyte resulted in complete relief of sensory symptoms.
Keywords : Carpal tunnel syndrome, carpal osteophyte, Median Nerve, Median Nerve Compression, Carpal Canal, Entrapment Neuropathy
