Ultrasound-guided carpal tunnel release using dynamic expansion of the transverse safe zone in a patient with post-polio syndrome: a case report. PM&R 2018; 10(10): 1115-8.
Case report documenting the clinical outcome of a patient with post-polio syndrome who could immediately resume crutch weight-bearing following staged bilateral CTR using the SX-One MicroKnife and ultrasound guidance.
After 12 weeks, the patient’s BCTQ symptom score improved by 2.0 (left) and 1.62 (right). The functional score improved by 1.25 (left) and 1.37 (right). The QDASH score improved by 52.27 points (left) and 34.09 points (right). At 4 weeks after each release, the patient reported complete resolution of symptoms and being very satisfied with the results on both sides. The patient was able to immediately resume crutch weight-bearing following each of the staggered bilateral CTR procedures using the SX-One MicroKnife and ultrasound guidance.
