Preliminary findings suggest the endoscopic revision procedure may be safe and effective for patients with recurrent carpal tunnel syndrome, extending the indications to include scars proximal to the wrist crease. Moreover, this minimally invasive procedure facilitates a transition back to normal activities and avoids incisions on weight-bearing surfaces of the palm. Adopting endoscopic revision may reduce the need for prolonged postoperative care and physical therapy. However, due to the limited sample size of five patients, further investigation with larger cohorts is warranted to confirm these observations.
