Pathologic anatomy and surgical treatment of De Quervain’s stenosing tenosynovitis
Abstract
Objectives: We compared anatomic variations in the first compartment in patients with de Quervain’s tenosynovitis and randomly selected cadaver wrists and examined their effects on the disease.
Methods: Thirty-five patients (mean age 46.7 years) with tenosynovitis (n=39) underwent surgical treatment. An anatomical study was also performed, of 41 cadaver wrists randomly selected. The first compartment of the wrists were exposed and the number of tendons and the presence of septa were explored.
Results: The study revealed more than one abductor pollicis longus tendon in 24 patients. In the clinical sample, the abductor pollicis longus and extensor pollicis brevis tendons were in the same channel in 57% and in two separate channels in 43%. In cadavers, the presence of two separate channels was 4%.
Conclusion: The differences in the number of channels and existence of septa suggest an increased risk for tenosynovitis in patients with two separate channels. These should be considered in preventing surgery-associated complications.
