Y’all remember this one..
The surgeon is new and as a radiologist, one has to break the knot with the surgeon and also break the bread together! to build confidence and relationships which I endure!
I was questioned about carpal tunnel syndrome and VISI- the surgeon mentioned that he examined twice before and there is no CTS clinically. I told him 101% its there as mentioned in NS-RADS
Turned out- CTS for sure- released- hyperemic median nerve and compressed
VISI- non-dissociative with marked wrist flexion instability- seen with partial SL and LT tears, prior radial fracture.. and those were prospectively called
Sometimes- fridays are fabulous!
Enjoy- 65F from Tx!
