Carpal Tunnel Syndrome in Patients With Psoriatic Arthritis; Ultrasonography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Clinical Trial

Official title:
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome in Patients With Psoriatic Arthritis; Ultrasonography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings

Clinical Trial Summary

This study aimed to investigate relationship between CTS diagnosis with electrodiagnostic studies and median nerve's cross-sectional area measered by US and MRI in PsA patients.

Clinical Trial Description

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a type of entrapment neuropathy, caused by compression of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel at the wrist1. It accounts for about 90% of all entrapment neuropathies. But there is no gold standard technique for diagnosing CTS. Electrodiagnostic studies (EDS) are generally used in differential diagnosis because the symptoms may be difficult to interpret. Unfortunetely EDS has some limitations. The factors can limit EDS are that it is not comfortable for patients and physicians, may require interventional procedures, need patient cooperation, provide limited information on the etiology of CTS, time consuming, and can not be used in some patient groups such as patients with dermatological contraindications. Recent years, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasonography (US) have facilitated the diagnosis of CTS. The median nerve cross-sectional area (CSA) measured by US or MRI has been found to be associated with CTS. However, there are studies with conflicting results regarding the median nerve CSA in patients with rheumatic diseases. Psoriatic arthritis (PsA), a kind of rheumatic disease, occurs in up to 30% of people with psoriasis and can have serious debilitating effects on the peripheral joints, spine, tendon insertions, and fingers. To our knowlage, any study didn't assess MRI measurements of median nerve CSA in PsA patients. In this study we aimed to assess CTS's US and MRI findings in patients with PsA and compare them healty controls. ;
