Orthopedic Surgery Department, CHU Caremeaux, Nîmes, France.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the results of a novel retrograde ultrasound-guided A1 pulley release technique for the treatment of trigger thumb. We conducted a retrospective, single-center study of 42 patients who underwent ultrasound-guided A1 pulley release for clinically diagnosed trigger thumb between September 2022 and December 2023. All cases were graded according to the Green classification of trigger finger severity.

Trigger finger, or stenosing tenovaginitis, is a common condition characterized by impaired flexor tendon sliding due to thickening of the A1 pulley. While open surgical release remains the gold standard for the treatment of persistent trigger finger, there is increasing interest in minimally invasive ultrasound-guided techniques to improve precision and outcomes. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the outcomes, safety, and complications associated with ultrasound-guided trigger finger release using a minimally invasive surgical knife.

Oesophageal cancer corresponds to a malignant neoplasm with a poor prognosis. Neuroendocrine tumors of the esophagus are very rare, accounting for less than 2%. When clinically manifested by permanent, progressive dysphagia and general impact, they usually correspond to locally advanced tumors with a poor prognosis.

- The study aimed to compare the clinical features, treatment options, and outcomes of patients with myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) to those with obstructive coronary arteries (MIOCA).
- Of the 712 patients analyzed, 73 were diagnosed with MINOCA, predominantly affecting younger women, with common causes being discrepancies in myocardial oxygen supply and demand, along with hypertensive crises.
- Results indicated that treatment for MINOCA patients was less aggressive than for MIOCA patients, yet their short-term and long-term mortality rates were similar, underscoring the urgent need for better management strategies for MINOCA.
Purpose: This study aimed to report pain during and following injection for trigger finger as well as failure to resolve triggering. We hypothesized that a corticosteroid injection alone would be equally or less painful compared with the standard combination of corticosteroid and lidocaine for the treatment of trigger fingers, and there would be no difference in the resolution of triggering.
Methods: Our study was a prospective, single-blinded, randomized controlled trial at a single institution, comprising 76 patients with a diagnosis of trigger finger.
