Objective: To document changes in the median nerve cross-sectional area (CSA) in the proximal carpal tunnel region after ultrasound (US)-guided carpal tunnel release (CTR).

Methods: Prospective data were collected on 23 consecutive patients (37 wrists) treated with US-guided CTR by the primary author using the same office-based microinvasive technique. Ultrasound was used to measure the largest CSA of the median nerve in the proximal carpal tunnel region both preoperatively and postoperatively.
