Description
Two hundred and thirty-six trigger fingers in 202 cases treated during the last eight and a half years in rural areas were examined.<BR>1) There were only 5 cases with 8 trigger fingers recognized in children, far fewer than in urban areas as reported in various other surveys.<BR>2) Out of 228 trigger fingers in 197 adult patients, 162 cases (82.2%) were females and many of them were in the age range 40-60 years.<BR>As to the affected fingers, the following percental distribution from the thumb to the little finger was found : 58.7 (134 cases), 3 (7 cases), 23.2 (53 cases), 14 (32 cases), and less than 1 (2 cases) per cent. There were no significant differences between rural and urban areas as far as those data were concerned.<BR>3) In treating trigger fingers in children, it is desirable to observe their developments for a certain period of time while applying a conservative treatment.<BR>In treating adult patients, a surgical operation seems best for a quick and definite recovery.
