Article Synopsis
- Carpal tunnel syndrome, particularly when affecting both hands, may indicate the presence of amyloid deposits linked to systemic amyloidosis, which can severely impact organ health, especially the heart.
- A study conducted from 2019 to 2023 involved biopsying tenosynovial samples from 54 patients during surgery to analyze for amyloid deposits, with 16 showing positive results.
- The findings suggest that detecting amyloidosis during surgery is feasible and could lead to better early intervention and patient outcomes.
