ABSTRACT
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a very common hand condition, which after a failure of conservative treatment can be treated successfully with surgical decompression in either an open or endoscopic manner. On comparing the two techniques there may be some subtle differences; however, both can provide an excellent outcome. This article provides a detailed review of each technique as well as their comparative differences in terms of technique, outcomes, and complications.
