Abstract
Prevalence of FCRB in patients with CTS was 1.6%. FCRB should function as a wrist flexor. Its strength varied according to the individuals but was not greater than that of the hypothenar muscles. It is still unclear if the FCRB could cause the development of CTS. However, it was found that the FCRB could be a mass which occupies and narrows the anterior compartment.
