Carpal Tunnel Release Surgery is used to alleviate the painful symptoms associated with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS).
Dr. Lerner performs the procedure via an incision on the wrist, severing the carpal ligament and relieving the pressure on the median nerve.
The incision is sutured closed allowing the ligament tissue to heal back together over several months; leaving more space between the ligament and the nerve, and reducing pressure on the nerve.
Patients who have had Carpal Tunnel Surgery performed by Dr. Lerner have had great success in alleviating their pain and discomfort. The dedicated staff of Metropolitan Orthopedics delivers excellent care and will help you on your journey back to normal function.
