Abstract
- De Quervain tenosynovitis is an overuse syndrome associated with inflammation of the tendons in the first dorsal compartment of the wrist. Management includes activity modification, splinting, and corticosteroid injections. In refractory cases, surgical release may be performed, which may be complicated by incomplete release, tendon subluxation, or radial nerve injury. Alternatively, ultrasound-guided release may improve patient satisfaction and outcomes through faster recovery time as well as improved visualization of subcompartments and neurovascular structures. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first case in the literature describing a novel technique for ultrasound-guided first dorsal compartment release for refractory de Quervain tenosynovitis.
