Age delays the recovery of distal motor latency after carpal tunnel syndrome surgery

Original language description

Studies have shown slow healing of peripheral nerve injury in elderly patients. Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most frequent compressive mononeuropathy, affecting mostly older people and females. Few studies have assessed electrophysiological differences between younger and older patients. We aimed to evaluate age-dependent differences in electrophysiological parameters preoperatively and postoperatively over a 100-day postoperative period.This retrospective study included 258 hands of patients whounderwent conventional open-technique carpal tunnel syndrome surgery. Patients with paresthesia in the median nerve distribution or with impaired sensation or abnormal findings in sensory and motor median nerve conduction studies were enrolled. The agedependence of the preoperative values of distal motor latency, amplitude of the compound motor action potential and sensory conduction velocity was estimated using regression analysis.Statistically significant age dependence was found for
