Minimally invasive techniques have become the standard of care for multiple procedures. Our sheathless tube technique makes minimally invasive techniques for carpal tunnel syndrome simpler and offers reduced incision pain, improved aesthetic outcomes, and shorter recovery time. The technique involves using the palmar longus tendon to create the operative space while using it as a guide to release the transverse carpal ligament and achieve nerve decompression. The surgical outcome is comparable with other traditional methods. The conventional approach involves a contrasting perspective, by contrast, our incision and operation are performed on the same side, making it significantly more manageable to acquire mastery. Therefore, this technique represents a viable approach for carpal tunnel release without special equipment.
微创技术已成为多种手术的标准治疗方法。我们的无鞘管技术使腕管综合征的微创技术更简单，切口疼痛减轻，美学效果改善，恢复时间缩短。该技术包括利用掌长肌腱创建手术空间，同时将其作为引导来松解腕横韧带并实现神经减压。手术结果与其他传统方法相当。传统方法则采用相反的视角，相比之下，我们的切口和操作在同一侧进行，这使得掌握起来明显更容易。因此，该技术是一种无需特殊设备即可进行腕管松解的可行方法。
