Characteristics of carpal tunnel syndrome in patients with cervical radiculopathy: A cross-sectional study.

In summary, we found a relatively high prevalence of DCS in the present study. In patients with and without DCS, gender did not seem to play a role but the growing age seemed to contribute to DCS. The severity of CTS was not related to CR severity at any cervical level, which negates a causal relation between the pre-existing CR and newly diagnosed CTS.
