Report Presentation

Background: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a condition seen commonly in clinical practice; high-flow arteriovenous malformations (AVM) can be a rare but important cause. Case Report: We discuss a case of a patient who had developed left CTS in the fifth decade of life as the result of a progressively enlarging congenital peripheral AVM affecting his left upper limb. This case illustrates the clinical challenges encountered in the surgical and interventional management of this complex issue. Discussion:High-flow AVMs affecting the extremities may be comprised of a convoluted network of vessels in high-flow, low-resistance systems that often recur despite intervention. Conclusion: Peripheral AVM affecting the hand can be a rare and therapeutically challenging cause of carpal tunnel syndrome that warrants multidisciplinary team discussion.

Tunnel Syndrome

We present a case report of a patient diagnosed with Holt-Oram syndrome (HOS) presenting with clinical and electrophysiologically confirmed carpal tunnel syndrome. Pre-operative Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an abnormal course of the median nerve; as such an atypical incision and approach were carried out to decompress the nerve to excellent post operative clinical effect. To our knowledge this is the first description of abnormal nervous course in a patient with HOS leading to peripheral entrapment. A literature surrounding the important aspects of HOS to the orthopaedic surgeon is presented concomitantly.
