Abstract

Abstract A 22-year-old female presented to our clinic with the redevelopment of compressive symptoms after undergoing right carpal tunnel release 2 years prior. During revision surgery, the application of a chitosan polysaccharide membrane wrap over the median nerve was secured with three hemoclips. Follow-up revealed that these clips traveled distally to the volar aspect of the patient’s small finger necessitating excision. Hemoclips in hand surgery serve as a useful tool for securing constructs; however, the recommendation to use them sparingly is made because of the potential for migration and exacerbation of symptoms.
