“…The potential etiologies of chronic flexor tenosynovitis of the hand include infections, autoimmune disorders, gout, pseudogout, calcific tenosynovitis, amyloidosis, ochronosis, stenosing tenosynovitis, and foreign bodies 2 Envenomation injuries resulting in chronic tenosynovitis are exceedingly rare and limited to case reports in the literature. 10,11 Animal species previously implicated in these type of cases include rattlesnakes, catfish, and stingrays.…”

Negative Prognosefaktoren sind nach Mamane und Mitarb.…”

[36] ein fortgeschrittenes Stadium der Infektion, Infektionen mit beta-hämolysierenden Streptokokken [37], Nikotinabusus, Diabetes mellitus und Immunschwäche.
