Peripheral nerve surgery

Our peripheral nerve surgery team sees and assesses patients with injuries or loss of function to any of the main nerves in the arm, wrist or hand.

Conditions and treatments

This upper limb service sees a variety of cases, mainly as a result of traumatic injuries or pressure on the nerves.

These nerve compression syndromes are often called carpal tunnel syndrome (wrist) or cubital tunnel syndrome (elbow).
