Carpal tunnel syndrome: The role of collagen gene variants.

Gene - 1 Aug 2016

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: The direct causes of idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) are still unknown. It is suggested that pathology of the tendons and other connective tissue structures within the carpal tunnel may play a role in its aetiology. Variants in genes encoding connective tissue proteins, such as type V collagen, have previously been associated with CTS. Since variants within other collagen genes, such as type...
