Popis: Carpal tunnel syndrome is common during pregnancy and is considered to have a short and benign course. Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs most frequently in third trimester. Pati- ents are usually managed conservatively ; symptoms improve after delivery and do not require surgi- cal intervention. We report an interesting case of pregnancy-associated carpal tunnel syndrome in a 23-year- old woman, with detailed electrophysiological studies before and after wrist splinting.
