Perioperative Guyon’s canal and carpal canal pressure in one-forearm portal endoscopic carpal tunnel release surgery were measured in resting position and during active power gripping in 66 hands. This was done using the continuous infusion technique with a local anaesthetic and without pneumatic tourniquet. Immediate mean postoperative Guyon’s canal and carpal canal pressure decreased in both measurements. During active power gripping, postoperative Guyon’s canal pressure was less than 40 mmHg in 61 hands, however, this increased to over 40 mmHg in five hands. In these five hands, Guyon’s canal syndrome did not develop. Guyon’s canal and carpal canal pressures were only correlated during postoperative active power gripping. It remains unclear whether immediate postoperative Guyon’s canal pressure correlates with higher pressures a few days later as reported in cases of transient postoperative Guyon’s canal syndrome.

An atypical case of Guyon’s canal syndrome is reported. A 40-year-old woman with hypoaesthesia and claw-finger deformity of the little finger, hypothenar muscle atrophy but no first dorsal interosseous muscle atrophy, underwent release of a fibrous band to decompress the ulnar nerve at the deep branch just proximal to the branch to the abductor digiti minimi muscle. The claw-finger deformity recovered 1 week after surgery.
