RESULTS: Complete attained 15 cases (83,3 %) 17 (94,4 2. Operative time averaged 27,2 minutes 29,2 Lesion median nerve occurred (11,1 1. presented no lesions. CONCLUSION: It concluded that there significant difference when techniques ligament. injury, inspite its (p < 0,05) incidence may be related researcher's learning curve.
