RATIONALE: When surgical treatment is indicated for primary trigger finger, open A1 pulley release has traditionally been recommended with generally good results. However, ganglion cysts of the flexor tendon sheath as a complication after an open A1 pulley release were rarely reported. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to report a case of multiple ganglion cysts arising from the flexor tendon sheath in a patient undergoing an open A1 pulley release for trigger finger disorder with a review of the relevant literature.
PATIENT CONCERNS AND DIAGNOSIS: A 65-year-old right-handed farmer was referred to our hospital for swelling in the left long finger (LLF). One year before the visit, the patient was diagnosed with trigger finger in the LLF at other hospital and an open A1 pulley release was performed, but the swelling of the finger persisted. The patient had no history of trauma or evidence of systemic disease such as rheumatoid or other inflammatory arthritis. The patient was diagnosed with multiple ganglion cysts of flexor tendon sheath after investigation.
INTERVENTION AND OUTCOMES: We successfully excised cystic masses and debrided the partially ruptured flexor digitorum superficialis (FDS) tendon and sutured it using 5/0 prolene. At 12-month follow-up, the patient was completely asymptomatic with excellent range of motion in the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint (0°-60°) of his LLF, showing no recurrence of ganglion cyst.
LESSONS: Trigger finger is a common condition that clinicians encounter frequently. However, this familiarity may lead to inattentive treatment. Nevertheless, through this case, clinicians should devote careful attention when performing open A1 pulley release to prevent partial rupture of the flexor tendon in the A1 pulley. If ganglion cysts occur, we believe that surgical excision can yield good results.
