A new mini-incision technique with the advantage of visualizing the median nerve and carpal ligament and preserving the overlying soft (pillar) tissue is presented. With this "two stitch" technique, surgeons can be assured that the median nerve and its sensory branches are protected and the volar ligament is completely released.
