Clinical Trial Summary

This study will determine the prevalence of transthyretin amyloidosis in pathology of the transverse carpal ligament and cardiac involvement using natriuretic peptides, electrocardiography and echocardiography in patients referred for carpal tunnel release surgery of idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome. This study will describe the relationship between amyloid deposition observed on the transverse carpal ligament and the presence of cardiac involvement.


Clinical Trial Description

Unrecognized wild-type transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRwt) in patients with idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a prevalent aging-related disorder. Amyloid deposition in the tenosynovial tissue has been reported in ~35% of patients with idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome. Otherwise, CTS has been shown to be the most common initial symptom of systemic wild-type transthyretin amyloidosis. The clinical significance of subclinical ATTRwt deposits in the heart in elderly patients has yet to be determined, but these deposits could contribute to the development of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. ATTRwt has been reported in ~15% of patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Early detection of amyloid deposition in the transverse carpal ligament of patients with CTS could anticipate cardiac damage and progression to heart failure.The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of transthyretin amyloidosis in pathology of the transverse carpal ligament and cardiac involvement using natriuretic peptides, electrocardiography and echocardiography in patients referred for carpal tunnel release surgery of idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome. ;
