- Abstract
- Carpal tunnel syndrome is a condition rarely encountered during the growth period. We describe five new cases in two large Belgian university hospitals. One case concerned a 2-year-old child suffering from disseminated angiomatosis, an association not previously reported. Another case of mild severity corresponded to the classic association of trigger fingers and carpal tunnel syndrome. The third case was posttraumatic, and the last two cases were of the familial type that previously has been reported in four families. We discuss these observations and briefly review the literature.
