Health-related quality of life 5 years after carpal tunnel release among patients with diabetes: a prospective study with matched controls.
(2014) In BMC Endocrine Disorders 14(1).- Abstract
- Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common entrapment neuropathy encountered in diabetes. The short-term improvement after carpal tunnel release has previously been demonstrated not to differ between patients with and without diabetes, despite a marked impairment in health-related quality of life (HRQL) among the former. In this study, we compare HRQL 5 years after carpal tunnel release between these two groups of patients.
