The Correct Answer is E
Explanation: Clinically, the patient has carpal tunnel syndrome, an entrapment neuropathy in which the median nerve is compressed within the carpal tunnel area. A new type of amyloid protein identified as β2-microglobulin has been demonstrated in bone and carpal tunnel tissue of patients undergoing long-term (usually greater than 10 years) hemodialysis. It is hoped that modifications of the dialysis membranes may result in improved β2-microglobulin clearance with diminished tissue deposition.
