Journal of Hand Surgery 2023 November 23
The trapezium tunnel is situated on the lateral side of the carpal tunnel, lined with synovial tissue, and accommodates the flexor carpi radialis tendon. Trapezium tunnel syndrome is characterized by flexor carpi radialis tendinitis/peritendinitis and may lead to complicated clinical scenarios, such as flexor carpi radialis tendon rupture and the formation of primary or recurrent ganglion cysts on the volar radial side of the wrist and thenar area. Notably, the simultaneous presence of trapezium tunnel syndrome might contribute to unsuccessful outcomes in carpal tunnel surgeries. Trapezium tunnel syndrome may arise from either intrinsic or extrinsic factors.
