Adaptation of the Transverse Carpal Ligament Associated with Repetitive Hand Use in Pianists.
The transverse carpal ligament (TCL) plays a critical role in carpal tunnel biomechanics through interactions with its surrounding tissues. The purpose of this study was to investigate the in vivo adaptations of the TCL's mechanical properties in response to repetitive hand use in pianists usin...
