anterior-interosseous-syndrome
A 35-year-old woman presents with difficulty using her dominant hand for fine tasks. She noticed the problem 3 weeks ago after intensive computer work. She cannot pinch small objects between her thumb and index finger. On examination, when asked to make an "OK" sign, her thumb IP and index DIP joints remain extended, forming a pulp-to-pulp pinch rather than a tip-to-tip circle. Sensation is intact throughout the hand. **Which of the following BEST describes this clinical presentation?**

Carpal tunnel syndrome with isolated motor involvement
