A Patient's Guide to Carpal Tunnel Surgery

This video shows how an open carpal tunnel release surgery is done.  Although this surgery is a very common and relatively simple surgery, sometimes the surgeon is not careful and injures the median or other nerves in the hand. If this happens the patient can suffer permanent limitations of use of the hand, in addition to numbness and pain.  At Berger & Lagnese we have successfully handled a number of medical malpractice cases involving nerve injuries as a result of carpal tunnel surgery. In one case after a jury trial the final judgment paid to the plaintiff was $725,000.
