Aligning Cutting Knife
- Pass either the large or small end of
the Knife Guide proximally underneath the
remaining portion of the transverse carpal
ligament
- The curved tip of the guide should pass
proximally and always be in contact
with the undersurface of the transverse
carpal ligament until it reaches beyond
the proximal extent of the ligament itself
(Figure 6)

Cutting Knife Alignment
- After ensuring an appropriate passage
of the guide, (without tissues between
the ligament and the guide itself ) hold
the guide closely against the transverse
carpal ligament. Engage the carpal tunnel
knife into the dedicated guide’s knife
groove (Figure 7).
