Sixty carpal tunnel decompressions were performed in 44 patients with combined carpal tunnel syndrome and peripheral neuropathy. Symptomatic improvement was obtained in 92% of the patients and complete relief of symptoms in 72%. We conclude that peripheral neuropathy is not a contraindication to carpal tunnel decompression.
