carpal tunnel n. a space between the carpal bones and the transverse carpal ligament on the palmar aspect of the wrist, through which pass the median nerve and the flexor tendons of the fingers and thumb.

1889 D. J. Cunningham Man. Pract. Anat. (ed. 2) I. 128 As the flexor tendons and the median nerve pass through the carpal tunnel they are enveloped by two synovial sheaths.

1926 Gray's Anat. (ed. 23) 307 This concavity is converted into a tunnel (carpal tunnel) by a strong band, the transverse carpal ligament.

1989 Guitar Player Mar. 22/1 This nerve runs across the palm side of the wrist through the carpal tunnel.

2004 Toronto Star (Nexis) 30 Sept. g10 Donkey Konga will probably cause more trouble for your carpal tunnels than any other video game you have ever touched.

Draft additions October 2011

carpal tunnel syndrome n. a condition caused by compression of the median nerve within the carpal tunnel at the wrist, characterized by a burning or tingling pain in the hand, sometimes with sensory loss and muscle weakness, and often believed to be associated with work that involves repetitive movements of the hands.

ΚΠ

1950 Lancet 20 May 942/1 If, as is generally supposed, the carpal-tunnel syndrome were due to compression of the entire median nerve in the carpal tunnel between the carpus and the retinaculum, one might expect the two radial lumbricals to be involved as well as the thenar muscles.

1974 R. Passmore & J. S. Robson Compan. Med. Stud. III. i. xxv. 70/2 Because fluid retention is common during pregnancy and at the menopause, the carpal tunnel syndrome may occur at these times.

2010 Vanity Fair July 121/1 He was..donning wrist guards similar to those worn by people with carpal-tunnel syndrome, although he does not have the condition.
