Ultrasound-Guided Carpal Tunnel Release
Sonex Health's SX-One MicroKnife lets surgeons treat carpal tunnel
syndrome through a 4mm to 5mm incision, eliminating the need for
open surgery to relieve pressure on the median nerve by cutting the
transverse carpal ligament (TCL). The microincision surgery involves
inserting the knife with ultrasound guidance under the TCL and
advancing a blade from the device's tip to transect the ligament. The
procedure eliminates the painful and extended recovery from tradi-
tional open surgery and results in less scarring.
