Hand Surgery Update IV: DeQuervain’s Tenosynovitis

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In the video, the APL and EPB compartments of the soft tissue are carefully mobilized and released using synonymy scissors. The synovitis surrounding the tenons is removed to inspect for additional compartments that may need to be released. Afterward, the wound margin is injected with a marking solution containing epinephrine, and the wound is closed using cuticular sutures. The patient's thumb is then splinted for two weeks with a plastered thumb spike of splint. No credits are mentioned or identified in the video transcript.
