The study demonstrated a decreasing trend in Guyon's Canal release performed in GCS patients but increasing cost of care implicated by the increased 90-day readmissions and same day and 90-day reimbursement. This may be attributed to the comorbidities present in GCS patients undergoing Guyon's Canal release. Therefore, it is imperative when consulting GCS patients with surgically relevant comorbidities to weigh the risk and benefits of the procedure.
