Brief Summary: The objective of this study was to assess sonographic changes of the median nerve after steroid injection for carpal tunnel syndrome.
Detailed Description: Patients with CTS were recruited. The Boston Questionnaire (BQ) was administered and ultrasonographic and electrophysiological examinations were performed before and at two, six, and 12 weeks after steroid injection. Cross sectional area (CSA) was measured at 2 levels: at the tunnel inlet and in the mid-carpal tunnel. Flattening ratio (FR) was measured only in the mid-carpal tunnel. Correlation analyses between baseline ultrasonography, BQ, and electrophysiological measures were performed.
