Abstract
This article aims to provide insights into the mechanical properties of SSCT described so far and place it in the context of CTS pathophysiology. A theoretical damage model concerning the SSCT is proposed showing a chain of events and vicious cycles that could lead to the nerve compression as it is found in CTS. Although not complete, this model could explain the pathophysiological pathway of idiopathic CTS.
