Brief Summary:
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome CTS is the most frequent mononeuropathy CTS is more frequent in females than in males it has been associated to work activities hormone exposure and obesity Although its primary treatment is conservative there is strong evidence that patients who retard surgery are more prone to develop worse outcomes Surgery to treat CTS consists in liberating carpal tunnel in order to ameliorate median nerve symptoms however more than 20 of patients who undergo surgery have recurrent CTS RCTS RCTS is due to a fibrotic process in the site of the surgery Amniotic membrane AM is the inner layer of the placenta which has been used to treat different pathologies AM transplantation AMT has demonstrated to significantly inhibit inflammation and fibrosis Therefore the aim of the present study was to determine the effect of AMT in CTS surgery The present is a randomized open labeled controlled clinical study The investigators included patients with recent diagnosis of CTS and divided into two groups The experimental group received AMT concomitantly with conventional surgery whilst the control group received only the conventional surgery Clinical status of patients measured with the BCTQ questionaire was the main outcome Both groups showed similar BCTQ punctuation at the beginning of the study However the results of the experimental group were significantly better than those from the control group through time until the finish of the study None of the patients presented complications or adverse effects related to the AMT These results indicate that AMT is a secure and suitable treatment for CTS presenting better clinical outcomes at one-year follow-up
