ENDOSCOPIC TRIGGER FINGER^◊

In conjunction with Yasushi Nakao, M.D., Smith & Nephew has developed an endoscopic approach to “Flexor Tendon Release” for fingers and thumbs due to stenosing tenosynovitis. Our minimally invasive approach is designed to decrease patient discomfort while incorporating the maximum safety element of releasing the A1 pulley under direct endoscopic vision. The system and technique combine to minimize patient risk commonly associated with conventional “Open” or “Blind” percutaneous techniques.

• Complete endoscopic system approach to restore full range of motion
• Unique “Window Cannulae” provides protected view of operative site
• Release of A1 Pulley accomplished under direct endoscopic view
• Small incisions minimize post operative discomfort
• Maximum benefit achieved in patients that require multiple releases
