Pain in hands is a common complaint in patients of end-stage renal disease on long term hemodialysis. This pain can arise from various different etiological factors. We present one such case of 56 years old lady who suffered from pain in the hand due to carpal tunnel syndrome on the side with angioaccess. Carpal tunnel was released by open surgical technique resulting in symptomatic relief of the patient.
