Carpian Tunnel Bibliographic Review on its Composition

Abstract

The literature review of the present study demonstrated that the Carpal tunnel is composed of a complex architecture that is still difficult to understand in its entirety. Through the analysis of preferred articles from the last five years, we concluded that the qualification and quantification of their content is very variable and the nervous variations present are on a weighted average of 3.07% and may be associated with the presence of a persistent median artery. Tendons vary in prevalence in tunnels evaluated at a weighted average of 4.57%. This is extremely important in the surgical planning of this region, aiming at its integral composition and possible variations.
