At Spire Yale, our consultants have extensive experience of performing carpal tunnel release surgery in our clean facilities.
Our consultants typically offer open release surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome. During surgery, your consultant will make an incision (cut) so they can see inside your wrist and cut the transverse carpal ligament.
