Median Nerve Stress Test in the early diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome

Abstract

In this study the role of median nerve stress test in the early diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) Was investigated. 40 cases of CTS were analised and it was shown that 20 cases appeared to have Tinel sign (+) and 20 cases Tinel sign (—). Also in both groups distal latency of median nerve was investigated before and after Phalen test. In both of these groups distal latency increased after Phalen test and it was concluded that this test may be valuable in the early diagnosis of CTS.
