This is a case report of carpal tunnel syndrome caused by an idiopathic calcareous lesion within the carpal canal. The median nerve was trapped between the transverse carpal ligament and the calcified mass. The mass was predominantly composed of calcium phosphate. Surgical release of the transverse carpal ligament and removal of the calcareous mass relieved the symptoms.
We describe the use of a microoscillating saw on the heart to remove calcific pericardium. This microoscillating saw proved indispensable to achieve a safe pericardiectomy in a 55-year-old woman with thick, severe idiopathic calcific constrictive pericarditis.
