Abstract

We describe a case of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) in a hypertensive man on long term treatment with a beta-blocker, propranolol. The clinical and instrumental findings, including MRI at the wrist, excluded all other possible causes of CTS. The improvement in symptoms and electromyographic findings on discontinuation of the drug suggested that the CTS may have been related to the beta-blocker therapy.

摘要

我们描述了一例患有腕管综合征（CTS）的高血压男性病例，该患者长期使用β受体阻滞剂普萘洛尔进行治疗。包括手腕部磁共振成像（MRI）在内的临床和影像学检查结果排除了导致CTS的所有其他可能原因。停用该药物后症状改善以及肌电图检查结果提示，CTS可能与β受体阻滞剂治疗有关。
