Open vs. Endoscopic Surgery
Open Carpal Tunnel surgery can result in delayed recovery times and scar tenderness in the weeks and potentially months post-surgery. The Seg-WAY Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release system is minimally invasive which allows most patients to return to normal activity within days.
Open Surgery
The doctor will make about a 2-inch incision down the center of your palm
This cuts through layers of skin and tissue to expose the transverse carpal ligament
Minimally Invasive Surgery with Seg-WAY
The doctor will make a smaller, 1/2 inch incision in the crease of your wrist
Surgery is performed with a tiny camera and the Seg-WAY tools which can minimize scarring and decrease pain
