Patients who were dissatisfied according to their self estimation called self image dissatisfied included in the study and evaluated clinically and electro diagnostically. Patients with positive clinical findings called as clinical dissatisfied and patients with positive clinical and electrophysiological findings called as real dissatisfied patients. Collected data were evaluated.FINDINGS: Out of 169 patients who participated in the study, 22 (13%) were self image dissatisfied and 147 (73%) were satisfied. Fourteen (8.3%) of self image dissatisfied patients had positive clinical findings (clinical dissatisfied) and 9 (5.3%) had positive clinical and electrodiagnostic findings (real dissatisfied). Electrodiagnostic study in self image dissatisfied, cured and clinical dissatisfied patients was normal in 9 (41%), 6 (75%) and 3 (21.55) patients, and it was abnormal in 13 (59%), 2 (25%) and 11 (78.5%) patients, respectively. CONCLUSION: The results showed there was no clear correlation between clinical and electrodiagnostic improvement of CTS and combination of clinical and electrodiagnostic improvement is supposed to be reliable.N Janmohammadi,A Oushib NattajP Taghinejad OmranBabol University of Medical Sciencesarticleresultscarpal tunnel syndromesurgical treatmentphysical examinationelectrodiagnosisMedicineRMedicine (General)R5-920ENFAMajallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Bābul, Vol 14, Iss 6, Pp 55-59 (2012)
