\u00bfQue es el s\u00edndrome de T\u00fanel Carpiano? \u00a0<\/strong>
\nEntrevista para Canal 1 TV Ecuador<\/p>\n

El S\u00edndrome del T\u00fanel Carpiano o Canal Carpiano es una condici\u00f3n muy com\u00fan y poco entendida; al extremo que en los \u00faltimos a\u00f1os ha recibido mucha atenci\u00f3n por la presa y aun as\u00ed ni la comunidad cient\u00edfica lo termina de entender por completo.<\/p>\n

Los medios de comunicaci\u00f3n lo clasifican como una \u201cenfermedad de oficio\u201d, ya que lo tienden a asociar con actividades repetitivas como la mecanograf\u00eda o las labores en la l\u00ednea de montaje en f\u00e1brica, puesto a que el dolor se manifiesta en las manos. Sin embargo, la opini\u00f3n p\u00fablica se equivoca y la realidad es otra. La causa no es el uso de un teclado, aunque, las actividades repetitivas, como la mecanograf\u00eda, pueden agravarlo. \u201cS\u00edndrome del t\u00fanel carpiano\u201d significa que existe una compresi\u00f3n del nervio mediano de la mano.<\/p>\n

Este nervio est\u00e1 situado dentro de un t\u00fanel cuyas paredes inferior y laterales est\u00e1n formadas por los huesos carpianos, mientras la pared superior la forma una estructura llamada \u201cligamento carpiano transversal\u201d. Adem\u00e1s del nervio mediano, hay nueve tendones que le dan flexi\u00f3n a los dedos que pasan a trav\u00e9s del canal. Cuando la membrana que cubre a estos tendones se inflama, causa reducci\u00f3n del espacio provocando la compresi\u00f3n del nervio.<\/p>\n

Esta compresi\u00f3n del nervio central es la que produce los s\u00edntomas del S\u00edndrome del T\u00fanel Carpiano. La clave para entender este s\u00edndrome es contemplarlo como \u201cun nervio comprimido\u201d. Los s\u00edntomas m\u00e1s frecuentemente relacionados con S\u00edndrome del T\u00fanel Carpiano son entumecimiento y hormigueo de la mano. Los s\u00edntomas ocurren usualmente durante la noche y contin\u00faan entumidas al levantarse por las ma\u00f1anas.<\/p>\n

Con frecuencia se siente dolor en la mu\u00f1eca y debilidad en la mano, especialmente en el dedo pulgar, y si se deja que progrese sin tratamiento durante tiempo prolongado, puede llegar a atrofiarse el m\u00fasculo en la base del pulgar.<\/p>\n

El diagnostico del S\u00edndrome del T\u00fanel Carpiano se hace basado por un simple examen f\u00edsico en la consulta y por los s\u00edntomas presentados. El diagnostico es confirmado f\u00e1cilmente con un estudio de conducci\u00f3n del nervio, que mide la velocidad y latencia de los impulsos el\u00e9ctricos a trav\u00e9s del nervio central.<\/p>\n

Este estudio le ayuda al m\u00e9dico a determinar si el paciente sufre de una compresi\u00f3n del nervio mediano. Esta condici\u00f3n es m\u00e1s com\u00fan en mujeres de edad mediana, usualmente peri-menop\u00e1usicas.<\/p>\n

Tambi\u00e9n puede ser causada por condiciones cr\u00f3nicas como diabetis, gota \u00f3 enfermedad de la tiroides, tambi\u00e9n es muy com\u00fan en mujeres durante el tercer trimestre de embarazo o por r\u00e1pido aumento de peso. Si en caso que la persona no padece de estas condiciones, se dice que la causa es idiop\u00e1tica, lo que significa que la causa es desconocida.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
