Background:

  • Infectious tenosynovitis shares treatment principles with infectious arthritis.
  • Prompt intervention is crucial for favorable outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline the essential components of treating infectious tenosynovitis.
  • To discuss methods for minimizing complications and managing established fibrosis.

Main Methods:

  • Systemic and local antimicrobial administration.
  • Sheath lavage and drainage procedures.
  • Supportive therapies including passive range of motion, intrathecal hyaluronate, and phenylbutazone.

Main Results:

  • Early diagnosis and immediate therapy are paramount.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Combined antimicrobial and surgical approaches yield optimal results.
  • Adjuvant therapies aid in preventing and treating fibrosis and adhesions.

    • Conclusions:

    • Infectious tenosynovitis requires aggressive, multi-modal treatment.
    • Annular ligament resection can successfully address restrictive fibrosis.
    • A comprehensive approach ensures better patient recovery and function.
