Trigger Finger due to a Tendon Sheath Fibroma

چکیده
We report on a rare case of fibroma of tendon sheath causing triggering of the right middle finger in an 86-year-old woman. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a lesion attached to the flexor tendon sheath. Surgical excision was curative. Introduction Trigger finger is most frequently caused by stenosing tenosynovitis of flexor tendons in elderly patients. Trigger finger caused by a neoplastic condition is extremely unusual. We describe a patient initially presenting with triggering of the middle finger secondary to a

However, we were able to determine that with the satellite to spindle shape of cells. Histopathologically, the tumors appear well-mar-ginated under low-power microscopic examination. The tumor cells are relati...
متن کاملA medical imaging analysis system for trigger finger using an adaptive texture-based active shape model (ATASM) in ultrasound images
Trigger finger has become a prevalent disease that greatly affects occupational activity and daily life. Ultrasound imaging is commonly used for the clinical diagnosis of trigger finger severity. Due to image property variations, traditional methods cannot effectively segment the finger joint's tendon structure. In this study, an adaptive texture-based active shape model method is used for segm...
متن کاملTrigger finger at wrist caused by degenerative changes of the flexor tendon sheath and carpal tunnel syndrome: a case report
Trigger finger at wrist is a rare condition. Symptoms include finger triggering, snapping or catching at the wrist level. Carpal tunnel syndrome and median nerve compression neuropathy are almost always associated. We reported one case which was caused by degenerative changes of the flexor tendon sheath and carpal tunnel syndrome.
