Stenosing Flexor Tenosinovitis on Middle Finger (Trigger Finger), Surgical Treatment in a 1 Year Old Pacient. Case Report
Main Article Content
Abstract
Trigger finger, or stenosing tenosynovitis, is a common pathology of the hand, but a low incidence of this condition has been reported in children. Its pathophysiology is poorly understood and genetic association studies are lacking. There are conservative management such as immobilization with a splint, corticosteroid injection, physical rehabilitation therapy, but the definitive treatment is usually surgical, including percutaneous release of the A1 pulley and open release of the A1 pulley.
