Electrophysiologic studies of the ulnar nerve were done in all participants. The cross\u2010sectional areas of the median and ulnar nerves at the wrist were evaluated by sonography.

After release of the transverse carpal ligament, the cross\u2010sectional area of the ulnar nerve was significantly smaller than the size measured prior to surgery (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; .0001). The cross\u2010sectional area of the median nerve was significantly correlated with that of the ulnar nerve (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; .05). However, no statistically significant difference was found between the patients with carpal tunnel syndrome and controls in ulnar nerve conduction.
