Abstract
• Vitamin B₆ levels were determined in patients with idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome. Results from this limited study strongly suggest that vitamin B₆ deficiency may accompany carpal tunnel syndrome. This study did not address the question of the causal relationship between vitamin B₆ status and development of symptoms.
