You don't have to organise anything — we arrange the right clinic for your procedure. Which one suits your case best is something you decide together at your consultation.

Why endoscopic

Gentler than open surgery — by design

Because the skin of the palm is not cut open, there is less pain — and you are back to your life much sooner.

The methods

Endoscopic — or through a pinhole with ultrasound

Alongside the proven endoscopic technique, we are among the first practices in Austria to release the carpal ligament under live ultrasound — with no conventional incision at all. We recommend what fits your hand, not our schedule.

Proven standard

Endoscopic release

  • Keyhole incision with a camera view
  • The gold standard of minimally invasive release
  • Decades of evidence behind it
  • Outpatient, under local anaesthesia
New at our practice

Ultrasound-guided release

  • One tiny puncture — no open cut
  • Live ultrasound view during the entire release
  • Outpatient, under local anaesthesia

Performed with the Spirecut® system · Efficacy & safety studied prospectively (J Ultrasound, 2024)

Don't take our word for it

Real reviews from DocFinder and Google, translated from German — curated for experiences around the carpal tunnel operation.

Absolutely satisfied!

“After describing my symptoms on the phone, I had an appointment within two days — carpal tunnel syndrome on both sides. Two weeks later, both hands were operated on. I could move them immediately after surgery. Very caring, uncomplicated support.”

via DocFinder · 2025 · translated

Precise, straightforward, competent

FAQ

What patients ask most often

How long is the wait for surgery?

Usually just a few days — not weeks or months.

Will I need general anaesthesia?

Not necessarily. The procedure can be done under short sedation, a regional arm block, or purely local anaesthetic (wide-awake surgery).

When can I use my hand again?

Light everyday tasks often the very next day. The small suture typically comes out after about 12 days.

Can both hands be done at once?

Yes — with the endoscopic technique, treating both hands in one session works well.

Do I have to stay in hospital?

No. It is day surgery — an overnight stay is possible on request, but not required.

Do you treat patients in English?

Yes — consultation, surgery and follow-up, entirely in English. No referral needed. Call +43 660 3737 936 or book online.

Ready when you are

You don't have to live with this pain.

The longer carpal tunnel syndrome goes untreated, the higher the risk of permanent nerve damage. A free 15-minute call costs nothing — and shows you exactly what is possible.
