If nonsurgical options are not effective, this condition can also be treated surgically with a procedure known as trigger finger release (TFR). It involves releasing the pulley of the affected finger to allow the tendon to glide more freely. While some cases require a larger incision, known as open surgery, Hands-On Orthopedics is now offering TFR with real-time ultrasound guidance. Our doctor performs TFR through a minimally invasive approach to provide full mobility of the affected finger, with less scarring and a shorter recovery than open trigger finger release surgeries. It is a similar procedure to our in-office carpal tunnel surgery.

In-Office, Ultrasound-Guided Trigger Finger Release Surgery

Hands-On Orthopedics is the only orthopedic practice in the greater Tampa area offering this in-office, ultrasound-guided trigger finger release procedure.

TFR with real-time ultrasound guidance can alleviate the pain and inconvenience of the trigger finger and quickly have you back doing the day-to-day activities you love. Minimal scarring and immediate motion of the finger are some of the notable benefits.

If you are ready for long-term relief, then trigger finger release with UltraGuideTFR and real-time ultrasound guidance may be right for you. You don’t have to wait any longer to start enjoying the little things in life again.
