Resumen

Introduction One of the most widespread techniques to treat the recurrent carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the interposition of a vascularized hypothenar fat pad flap (Strickland technique). This technique is used by the Wrist and Hand Surgery Unit of the Traumatology Service of the Príncipe de Asturias University Hospital. The aim of this study is to review the patients who underwent recurrent CTS in this unit using this technique, and to check its evolution in the medium and long terms. Methods In this research, a retrospective descriptive study is performed. The population studied is the sample of patients operated by the Strickland technique, for recurrent CTS, operated between 2010 and 2017, having passed a minimum of 6 months since this last intervention. Conclusion Despite the limitations of this study, the data show that objective and subjective improvement is obtained in a large number of patients with recurrent CTS: at least 50% of the patients operated on are satisfied; being low the complication rate.
