Abstract
Subcutaneous release of the tendon sheath has been performed in 210 trigger digits of 172 patients. The follow-up period ranged from 3 to 58 months, with an average of 24 months. Based on our points system, the overall results were as follows: excellent 64.3%, good 9.5%, fair 8.1%, poor 18.1%. There were no infections, no injuries of nerves or vessels and no functional insufficiency. This subcutaneous procedure can be easily, quickly and safely performed by careful hand surgeons in the out-patient clinic.
