Background Endoscopic carpal tunnel release is evolving with advantages that include shorter hospital stays and earlier recovery. The supraretinacular approach is recent and avoids carpal tunnel dilatation, which may lead to median nerve compression. The study is a cohort prospective study to evaluate short-term results of endoscopic supraretinacular carpal tunnel release. Patients and methods Prospective study of 12 patients with carpal tunnel syndrome treated using endoscopic supraretinacular approach. Results All patients in the study reported relief of symptoms and return to their original work. No reported complications. There is an improvement in the Boston score and visual analog scale score. Conclusion The supraretinacular endoscopic carpal tunnel release is a valuable and reproducible technique with fewer complications.
