Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Paediatric trigger finger, though rare, often stems from anatomical variations like tendon nodules. Surgical intervention focusing on these specific variations, such as flexor digitorum superficialis slip resection, can reduce recurrence rates.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Anatomy

Background:

  • Paediatric trigger finger is an uncommon condition with an unclear aetiology.
  • Potential causes include trauma, anatomical anomalies, and systemic conditions.
  • Existing literature lacks detailed anatomical descriptions for paediatric trigger finger.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify and detail the anatomical causes of surgically treated paediatric trigger fingers.
  • To develop an operative algorithm based on anatomical findings for paediatric trigger finger.
  • To analyze the impact of anatomical variations on surgical outcomes and recurrence rates.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 76 paediatric trigger fingers in 38 patients (1975-2022).
  • Detailed analysis of intraoperative anatomical findings during surgical treatment.
  • Comparison of recurrence rates based on surgical techniques and identified anatomical variations.

Main Results:

  • Anatomical variations were present in 41 of 76 trigger fingers (54%).
  • Nodular thickening of the tendon (similar to Notta's nodule) was the most frequent cause.
  • Abnormal decussation of the flexor digitorum superficialis tendon was the second most common variation.
  • Resection of one flexor digitorum superficialis tendon slip showed a significantly lower recurrence rate.

Conclusions:

  • Anatomical variations are common in paediatric trigger finger requiring surgical treatment.
  • Identifying and addressing specific anatomical variations, like tendon nodules or flexor digitorum superficialis abnormalities, is crucial.
  • Tailoring surgical techniques to anatomical findings, such as FDS slip resection, may improve outcomes and reduce recurrence in paediatric trigger finger.
