Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the occurrence of hand-related issues like carpal tunnel syndrome and trigger finger in patients after shoulder surgeries like arthroscopy and arthroplasty.
- Researchers analyzed data from over 12,000 patients, finding a significant number developed these hand pathologies within one year post-surgery compared to control groups.
- The results indicated that both arthroscopy and arthroplasty procedures increased the risk of hand-related conditions, with shoulder arthroplasty showing a higher risk than arthroscopy.
