Most cases of carpal tunnel syndrome are idiopathic. One condition associated with carpal tunnel syndrome is a lipofibromatous hamartoma. We describe a case of a lipofibromatous hamartoma presenting as a soft tissue wrist swelling with associated symptoms and signs of carpal tunnel syndrome. We advocate that all soft tissue swellings of the wrist with associated neurological signs be investigated appropriately, avoiding unnecessary additional surgery.
大多数腕管综合征是特发性的。与腕管综合征相关的一种病症是脂肪瘤性纤维组织细胞瘤。我们描述了一例脂肪瘤性纤维组织细胞瘤表现为软组织腕部肿胀，伴有腕管综合征的相关症状和体征。我们主张对所有伴有神经症状的腕部软组织肿胀进行适当的检查，避免不必要的额外手术。
