However, ACTS due to tophaceous gout is a clinical event that remains poorly understood and underreported. This rare manifestation necessitates prompt diagnosis and intervention to prevent irreversible complications.<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>CASE SUMMARY<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>A 51-year-old man who had poorly controlled hyperuricemia presented with ACTS secondary to tophaceous gout. Because of rapid symptom progression symptoms and severe median nerve compression within 3 mo, the patient underwent emergency decompression surgery for both wrists at different time points. Postoperatively, he exhibited complete recovery of sensory and motor functions, with no recurrence at long-term follow-up. Favorable outcomes were achieved through immediate decompression surgery, anti-inflammatory medications, postoperative active and passive range-of-motion exercises, and intermittent wrist splinting. Prompt diagnosis and surgical intervention, when necessary, are crucial for preventing long-term complications and obtaining favorable outcomes in patients with ACTS. An optimal gout management strategy involving pharmacologic therapy and lifestyle modifications may help minimize ACTS recurrence and improve clinical outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>CONCLUSION<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>Prompt surgical intervention and optimal gout management are crucial for preventing irreversible nerve damage and ACTS recurrence.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.12998\/wjcc.v12.i2.418","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,10]],"date-time":"2024-01-10T10:10:01Z","timestamp":1704881401000},"page":"418-424","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Subsequent bilateral acute carpal tunnel syndrome due to tophaceous infiltration: A case report"],"prefix":"10.12998","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Soon-Chin","family":"Yeoh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wen-Tien","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jui-Tien","family":"Shih","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wen-Chin","family":"Su","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kuang-Ting","family":"Yeh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2060","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ocl.2021.11.005"},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11552-014-9712-0"},{"key":"B3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm11010166"},{"key":"B4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2147\/OARRR.S192369"},{"key":"B5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jotr.2014.01.004"},{"key":"B6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1753193409357374"},{"key":"B7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3904\/kjim.2014.29.4.544"},{"key":"B8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jhsg.2022.04.012"},{"key":"B9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jare.2017.04.008"},{"key":"B10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/14651858.CD004158.pub3"},{"key":"B11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1558944718812155"},{"key":"B12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jht.2018.02.006"},{"key":"B13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jht.2016.03.007"},{"key":"B14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12891-019-2638-5"},{"key":"B15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/mus.23421"},{"key":"B16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm10184121"},{"key":"B17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5704\/MOJ.1507.011"},{"key":"B18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jhsa.2008.10.022"},{"key":"B19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00330-018-5363-9"},{"key":"B20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/rheumatology\/keac479"}],"container-title":["World Journal of Clinical Cases"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.wjgnet.com\/2307-8960\/full\/v12\/i2\/418.htm","content-type":"text\/html","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.wjgnet.com\/2307-8960\/full\/v12\/i2\/418.htm","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,10]],"date-time":"2024-01-10T10:11:58Z","timestamp":1704881518000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.wjgnet.com\/2307-8960\/full\/v12\/i2\/418.htm"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,16]]},"references-count":20,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2"},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.12998\/wjcc.v12.i2.418","relation":{},"ISSN":["2307-8960"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2307-8960","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,16]]}}}
