Description:
Surgical release for trigger finger involves cutting the A1 pulley, a fibrous band at the base of the affected finger or thumb, to allow the flexor tendon to glide freely. The procedure is typically done under local anesthesia and takes about 15–30 minutes. A small incision is made in the palm, and once the pulley is released, the snapping or locking sensation resolves immediately. Recovery involves early finger motion to prevent stiffness, with most patients resuming normal activities within a few weeks. Surgical release is usually considered after failure of conservative treatments like splinting or corticosteroid injections.
