Ultra-minimally Invasive Sonographically-guided Trigger Digit Release: An External Pilot Study

The intrasheath sonographically-guided first annular pulley release is safe and efficacious, and shows a trend toward clinical superiority versus the classic open procedure, which should be confirmed with a clinical trial.

Identification of the location of the A1 pulley combining palpation technique with palm landmarks and percutaneous release of A1 pulley with a 19-gauge needle: A cadaveric study

Percutaneous release of the A1 pulley with a 19-gauge needle shows acceptable results in both safety and efficacy and can be predicted with success.

Association between diabetes mellitus and risk of infection after trigger finger release: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Meta-analysis results demonstrated that diabetes mellitus increases the risk of infection after trigger finger release, and Glycemic control and percutaneous rather than open surgery might be strategies to the reduce risk of infected patients in diabetic patients.

Acquired triggering of the fingers and thumb in adults

The causes and clinical features of acquired triggering of the digit are explained, and the options and techniques for its management are described while discussing the evidence base behind them.
