Carpal Tunnel Syndrome ,anatomy ,animation - Everything You Need To Know - Dr. Nabil Ebraheim

Dr. Ebraheim’s educational animated video describes the anatomy Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve which runs from the forearm into the palm of the hand becomes pressed or squeezed at the wrist. The flexor retinaculum may entrap the median nerve as it passes into the hand. The flexor retinaculum is a strong fibrous band of tissue which crosses the carpal bones in the front of the hand (transverse carpal ligament). The flexor retinaculum is attached medially to the pisiform and the hook of the hamate. Laterally it is attached to the tubercle of the scaphoid and the crest of the trapezium. The flexor retinaculum is concave from side to side. The flexor retinaculum covers the median nerve and the flexor tendons. The structures that descend from the forearm to the hand either pass in the surface of the flexor retinaculum or inside the carpal tunnel. The ulnar nerve lies medial to the flexor retinaculum. The median nerve enters the hand through the carpal tunnel, deep to the flexor retinaculum. Other structures that pass through the carpal tunnel include all the flexor tendons of the fingers and thumb. Inflammation of the carpal tunnel compresses the median nerve and causes tingling, numbness, weakness, or pain in the thumb, index finger, middle finger, and half of the ring finger. Surgical release of the carpal tunnel is needed and the flexor retinaculum is cut to relieve the pressure being placed on the median nerve.
