Endoscopic Ganglionectomy and Release of the Sixth Extensor Compartment

Abstract: Stenosing tenosynovitis of the extensor carpi ulnaris is one of the causes of dorsoulnar wrist pain. Conservative treatment is usually effective to alleviate the pain. Surgical release of the retinaculum of the sixth extensor compartment is indicated if conservative treatment cannot alleviate the pain. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the technical details of endoscopic release of the sixth extensor compartment via a 2-portal approach. Endoscopic resection of a ganglion over the sixth compartm… Show more

“…La tenoscopia se puede utilizar para realizar una exploración endoscópica de la cara interna de la vaina del tendón, y este procedimiento se ha descrito para el tratamiento de enfermedades del tobillo, el codo, el hombro, la muñeca y la mano. [9][10][11][12] Presentamos una serie de ocho muñecas operadas con tenoscopia ECU en seis pacientes con tenosinovitis crónica de de los síntomas con el procedimiento, sin complicaciones graves ni recidiva de la lesión. La tenoscopia del extensor carpi ulnaris permite la sinovectomía del sexto compartimento extensor, conservando el retináculo extensor.…”

“…This procedure is contraindicated if the nerve is compressed by a solid tumor, severe hamate malunion, or pisiform dislocation. The presence of a ganglion is not a contraindication because endoscopic ganglionectomy can be performed during endoscopic release of the Guyon canal and pisohamate hiatus 11, 12, 13, 14. The procedure is contraindicated in cases of isolated sensory deficits in which the superficial sensory branch of the ulnar nerve is compressed by abnormal musculature or ulnar artery thrombosis in zone 3 (Table 1).…”
