Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Trigger finger in the paediatric population is a distinct condition from trigger thumb in the child or trigger finger in the adult. This paper reviews the current practices applied in the treatment of paediatric trigger finger. Intra-operative photographs are used to illustrate the anatomic anomalies that may be present. An operative algorithm is presented suggesting a step-wise approach to check all structures that may cause the symptom of triggering whilst avoiding unnecessary dissection once the cause of the trigger has been corrected. |
