Subungual glomus tumor.

Subungual glomus tumors arise from the glomus body of the digits. They are rare and benign and often in a single location. Their diagnosis relies on the typical clinical triad of symptoms and on imaging findings, mainly magnetic resonance imaging with gadolinium injection.

Modified Pull-Out Technique for Zone One Flexor Digitorum Profundus Repair.

Pull-out suture fixation is widely used to fix zone one flexor tendon injuries. The original technique of Bunnell generally has good results. However, in some cases, it may result in complications, including nail deformity and infection.

Ulnar Superficial Slip Resection for Resistant Trigger Finger: A Minimally Invasive Technique.

Primary trigger finger is a common hand disorder for which nonoperative treatment or release of A1 pulley is usually effective. For resistant or recurrent cases, there are different surgical techniques including partial or complete opening of A2 pulley, reduction tenoplasty, and resection of the ulnar slip of the flexor digitorum superficialis tendon. Here, we present our minimally invasive technique for ulnar superficial slip resection surgery.

Volar rerouting of the 1,2 intercompartmental supraretinacular artery vascularized bone graft for middle and distal scaphoid nonunions.

Background: The bone graft vascularized by the 1,2 intercompartmental supraretinacular artery (1,2 ICSRA) placed on the scaphoid by a dorsal approach is a technique used to treat scaphoid nonunions with avascular necrosis of the proximal pole and without significant bone loss or carpus collapse. We present the results of patients treated with a volar rerouting of the 1,2 ICSRA graft under the tendons of the first extensor compartment to treat more distal scaphoid nonunions than the proximal pole. The aim of this study was to assess the clinical and radiological outcomes of patients operated with this technique with the hypothesis that it would allow to treat more distal nonunions than those of the proximal pole.

Altered hand proprioception following regional anesthesia as a cause of traumatic jersey finger: Report of two cases.

The sense of body ownership is being increasingly studied by manipulating incoming signals from the periphery with local anesthetics. We sought to understand how altered proprioception induced by anesthesia triggered a traumatic jersey finger, immediately postoperatively, in two patients who underwent surgical carpal tunnel release. Multiple mechanisms contributed to these postoperative injuries associated with a fall.
