Predictors and Incidence of Requiring Subsequent Injection or Surgery in the Same Digit Following Trigger Finger Release
The incidence of reoperation following trigger finger release is less than 1% of patients, which supports previous research. We also established the rate of injection in the same digit following surgery to be 1.92%. This study may provide valuable information for surgeons when communicating with patients about the necessity of additional treatment following trigger finger release. In addition, it can help patients understand the outcomes of surgical management for severe trigger finger symptoms.
