Eleven wrists in eight patients with carpal tunnel syndrome were investigated by electrophysiological studies and magnetic resonance imaging (M.R.I.). The operative findings in ten wrists correlated with the M.R.I. evidence of synovial disease, carpal tunnel stenosis and median nerve compression.

ABSTRACTWe present a case of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) due to compression of the median nerve within the carpal tunnel, caused by cysticercosis. Nerve conduction studies revealed severe CTS. Magnetic resonance imaging suggested an inflammatory mass compressing the median nerve in carpal tunnel. The histological diagnosis was consistent with cysticercosis. The case resolved with conservative treatment. Such solitary presentation of entrapment median neuropathy as CTS caused by cysticercosis is extremely rare. To our knowledge, this is the only case of its kind reported in literature till date.
