Morphological Analysis of the Carpal Tunnel
HAND, 09/29/09
Pacek CA et al. – Width, depth, and cross–sectional area did not change significantly along the length of the carpal tunnel, but tilt angle did. The width of the palm strongly correlates with the width of the carpal tunnel. Other dimensional correlations did not reach statistical significance. The carpal tunnel is of uniform dimension along its length. The long axis of the carpal tunnel in cross–section rotates volarly from the radial side of the hand increasingly with distal progression along the carpal tunnel.
