The Risk of Complications after Carpal Tunnel Release in Patients Taking Acetylsalicylic Acid as Platelet Inhibition: A Multicenter Propensity Score-Matched Study.

Background: Carpal tunnel release is one of the most common procedures in hand surgery. There is only scarce evidence regarding whether platelet inhibitors increase the risk of developing postoperative hemorrhage in carpal tunnel release.

Methods: This is a multicenter, propensity score-matched study including 635 carpal tunnel releases in 497 patients.

Modified minimally invasive extensor carpi radialis longus tenodesis for scapholunate dissociation: a prospective observational study.

Background: Scapholunate dissociation is the most common form of carpal instability. However, there is no gold standard for operative treatment. In this prospective observational study on 54 patients, a modified minimally invasive dynamic extensor carpi radialis longus tenodesis is described, which is characterized by a smaller approach and application of a cannulated screw and washer for tendon fixation.
