To determine the role of high resolution ultrasonography in evaluation of cross sectional area, maximum nerve fascicle thickness and thickness/width ratio of the median nerve and flexor retinaculum thickness in patients with hypothyroidism and to correlate it with the healthy volunteers. The most affected parameter was cross sectional area of median nerve at three levels, inlet/outlet ratio of CSA of the median nerve and thickness of flexor retinaculum in hypothyroidism patients in correlation with healthy volunteers. These parameters showed statistically significant p values. Maximum nerve fascicle thickness and thickness/width ratio of the median nerve showed no statistical significance in hypothyroid patients in correlation with healthy volunteers.
