The rabbit model is commonly used to study carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). It has been proposed that the subsynovial connective tissue (SSCT) in the carpal tunnel may play a role in the etiology of CTS, but the material properties of the rabbit SSCT ar

Lubricin is the principal lubricant in synovial fluid. Although lubricin has been identified in tendons, especially on the surface of intrasynovial tendons such as the flexor digitorum profundus tendon, its ability to improve tendon gliding is unknow

In this pilot study, hypertonic dextrose solution was used to induce fibrosis of the subsynovial connective tissue (SSCT) and create an animal model of potential use in the study of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). The SSCT of the carpal tunnel in 15 Ne
