 Advanced carpal tunnel syndrome (ACTS) presents as CTS with severe thenar muscle atrophy and the absence of electrophysiological motor and sensory response. Electrophysiological recovery based on the reappearance of distal motor latency (DML) at abductor pollicis brevis and/or SCV after wrist stimulation was evaluated at 1 and 2 years after carpal tunnel release (CTR) according to the following grading system:stage 1:normal DML and SCV;stage 2:DML ≧ 4.5 ms and normal SCV;stage 3:DML ≧ 4.5 ms and SCV < 40.0 ms;stage 4:DML ≧ 4.5 ms and non-measurable SCV;stage 5:non-measurable DML and SCV. Measurable DML and SCV and a significant improvement were noted at both 1 and 2 years postoperatively. Furthermore, the percentage of patients with improvement rated as mild CTS (stage 1 or 2) had significantly increased at 1 year and 2 years. Electrophysiological assessment of DML and SCV of ACTS applied to the above grading system was effective as a tool for objective evaluation after CTR.
