Abstract:
Objective To systematically assess the efficacy of endoscopic operation and open operation for treating carpal tunnel syndrome .Methods The computer retrieval from MEDLINE ,EMBASE ,Cochrane August ,CNKI ,VIP ,Wanfang databases were conducted for collecting all related randomized controlled trials (RCT ) from February 1989 to February 2012 .The included litera-tures were performed the data extraction ,assessment of bias risk and the quality evaluation .Mata analysis was performed by the RevMan 5 .1 .6 software .Results 21 RCTs including 1 863 operations ,982 cases endoscopic carpal tunnel release (ECTR) and 881 cases of open carpal tunnel release(OCTR) ,met the inclusion criteria .Meta analysis showed that the differences in terms of postop-erative grip strength ,two points discrimination ,incidence of complications ,satisfaction rate ,postoperative symptom relief rate and operation time between the ECTR group and the OCTR group had no statistical significance .The ECTR group was better than the OCTR in the aspects of the time returnning to work ,pinch strength ,postoperative pain rate .Conclusion The ECTR group is supe-rior to the OCTR group in terms of the time returnning to work ,pinch strength ,postoperative pain rate .The other related indexes have no obvious differences between the two kinds of operation procedures .Due to the poor quality of some RCTs ,the above conclu-sion needs more high-quality ,large-sample clinical researches to confirm .
