The higher EI of PA and MS around MN in CTS may indicate greater fibrosis along the course of MN, reducing fascial adaptability, influencing the synergy and coordination of the MS, and increasing the shear stress between MS and MN, and it may further increase the abnormal pressure on the MN not only at the carpal tunnel, but also at the mid-forearm. These results may partly explain the role of PA and MS in CTS pathogenesis.
