Comparative clinical study of ultrasound-guided A1 pulley release vs open surgical intervention in the treatment of trigger finger
AIM To investigate the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided release of the first annular pulley and compare results with the conventional open operative technique. METHODS In this prospective randomized, single-center, clinical study, 32 patients with trigger finger or trigger thumb, grade II-IV according to Green classification system, were recruited. Two groups were formed; Group A (16 patien...
متن کاملThe "turtleneck" pulley plasty for finger flexor tendon repair.
Injuries to the flexor tendons are frequent. Even when correctly treated, they can cause a loss of mobility of the digits secondary to postoperative adhesions. Further, conflicts between the tendon suture and the pulleys can limit the range of motion of the tendon and the flexion of the fingers. We propose a new pulley plasty that permits immediate retraining and avoids conflict with the tendon...
متن کاملPercutaneous A1 Pulley Release a Clinical Study.
Percutaneous A1 pulley release is being increasingly used as an alternative to open surgical release and injection of local steroids for the treatment of the trigger digit. In 31 cases (26 patients), a percutaneous release was performed with a 14-gauge intravenous catheter needle under local anaesthesia in the outpatient setting. We report a 97% successful release and only one case of incomplet...
متن کاملClosed division of the flexor tendon sheath for trigger finger.
Closed tenotomy was used to treat triggering of the fingers and thumb in 54 patients. In 56 digits the method was successful; in seven it was a simple matter to proceed to open tenotomy. With experience, the closed procedure can be completed within minutes without risk of damaging the digital nerves.
متن کاملReverse Trigger Finger: Does it exist? A Case Report
Trigger finger is a common condition, occurs primarily at the A1 pulley and tenosynovitis is the usual cause. However, although rare, triggering of the flexor tendon can occur in other areas. We present previously unreported condition in adult: triggering at the distal end of A2 pulley, which was caused by nodular thickening of the flexor digitorium profondus tendon with degeneration. A 79-year...
