A Comparison of Histologic & Intraoperative Visual Assessments of Transverse Carpal Ligament During Revision #CarpalTunnelRelease@GeisingerOrtho
In revision carpal tunnel, surgeon-pathologist agreement is low for determining undivided ligament vs scar

Is routine biopsy of the transverse carpal ligament during revision CTR helpful? We compared histologic and intraoperative visual assessment of TCL during revision surgery to see if pathologist and surgeon agree on what they see https://t.co/JXMSWrX7RS
Be sure to check out our groups most recent publication in @JHandSurg. We looked at rates and reasons for conversion to an open procedure during endoscopic carpal tunnel release.

Do you think about the importance of radial stem angulation during anatomic radial head arthroplasty? We certainly are after a study published in JHS reported higher reoperations in implants with increased lateral misalignment.
