Abstract
As a surgical treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome, guidance mechanism and cutting mechanism are subcutaneously inserted in spaced-apart incisions located by well-known landmarks. The guidance mechanism is placed below the transverse carpal ligament, and the cutting mechanism is placed above it. As the cutting mechanism is advanced, it is guided by the guidance mechanism and the knife portion divides the carpal ligament.
