Trigger Finger Appearing as Gradually Increasing Digital Nerve Disorder after Surgical Treatment
نویسندگان
چکیده
Trigger finger is a common disease, and operative treatments are often applied for it. Digital nerve injury is one of the complications of this surgical treatment, and paresthesia and sensory disturbance occur early after the operation. This paper presents a case of trigger finger appearing gradually as increasing digital nerve disorder after surgical treatment. In the second surgery, scar tissue covered the palmar MP joint where the A1 pulley had existed before, and palmar digital neurovascular tissue of the ulnar side was found on the inside of the scar. The ulnar digital nerve showed swelling like a neuroma, and bilateral digital nerves existed nearer to the center of the flexor pollicis longus tendon than normal digital nerves. Even when we operate on trigger finger by open release, we should create an appropriate surgical space for observation and be careful of digital nerve injury.

متن کاملTrigger digits: principles, management, and complications.
Stenosing tenosynovitis, or trigger finger, is an entity seen commonly by hand surgeons. This problem generally is caused by a size mismatch between the flexor tendon and the first annular (A-1) pulley. Conservative management includes splinting, corticosteroid injection, and other adjuvant modalities. Surgical treatment consists of release of the A-1 pulley by open or percutaneous techniques. ...
