Practical use of ultrasonography for a trigger wrist – a case report

We report a case of trigger wrist diagnosed by ultrasonography. The ultrasound findings showed the mass around the flexor tendon triggering at the transverse carpal ligament during finger flexion. The operative findings were consistent with the ultrasonographic findings. This is practical not only to confirm the diagnosis but also to help preoperative planning.

Abstract

We report a case of trigger wrist diagnosed by ultrasonography. The ultrasound findings showed the mass around the flexor tendon triggering at the transverse carpal ligament during finger flexion. The operative findings were consistent with the ultrasonographic findings. This is practical not only to confirm the diagnosis but also to help preoperative planning.
