Percutaneous 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 کاملPercutaneous release of the A1 pulley: a cadaver study.
PURPOSE Percutaneous release of the A1 pulley has been used for treatment of trigger fingers with success. However, lack of direct visualization raises concerns about the completeness of the release and about potential injury to the tendons or neurovascular structures. The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of percutaneous release of the A1 pulley in a cadaveric model u...
متن کاملCommentary: Percutaneous release of the A1 pulley using a modified Kirschner wire: a cadaveric study.
PURPOSE. To evaluate the outcome of percutaneous release of the A1 pulley in 40 cadaveric fingers using a modified Kirschner wire. METHODS. A 2.5-mm-diameter Kirschner wire measuring >12 cm in length was used. One end of the wire was sharpened into a 'J' shape using a grinder. The J-shaped tip featured a blunt, elongated lower tip, a sharp J-shaped curve, and a blunt upper tip. Completeness of ...
متن کاملA comparative study of A1 pulley compliance.
BACKGROUND Trigger finger is most common in the ring finger, but the reason for this is not known. We hypothesized that the compliance of the A1 pulley might be one of the factors responsible for this phenomenon. The purpose of this study was therefore to compare the compliance of the normal A1 pulley of the thumb, index, middle, ring and little fingers using human cadavers. METHODS Eight nor...
متن کاملComparative 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...
