AbstractTrigger finger (TF) and carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) are two common non-traumatic hand disorders that frequently co-occur. By identifying TF and CTS cases in UK Biobank (UKB), we confirmed a highly significant phenotypic association between the diseases. To investigate the genetic basis for this association we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) including 2,908 TF cases and 436,579 European controls in UKB, identifying five independent loci. Colocalization with CTS summary statistics identified a co-localized locus at DIRC3 (lncRNA), which was replicated in FinnGen and fine-mapped to rs62175241. Single-cell and bulk eQTL analysis in fibroblasts from healthy donors (n=79) and tenosynovium samples from CTS patients (n=77) showed that the disease-protective rs62175241 allele was associated with increased DIRC3 and IGFBP5 expression. IGFBP5 is a secreted antagonist of IGF-1 signaling, and elevated IGF-1 levels were associated with CTS and TF in UKB, thereby implicating IGF-1 as a driver of both diseases.

Hospital Outpatients

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) and trigger finger are known to occur together in association with conditions such as diabetes mellitus, rheumatoid arthritis and hypothyroidism. Although most cases that present to a hand clinic have no obvious predisposing cause, the two conditions often appear together in the same patient. We performed a prospective study of the prevalence of CTS in hospital outpatients presenting with trigger finger. Six hundred and eighty-one patients with CTS, trigger finger or both conditions were recruited prospectively. Diagnosis of both disorders was made on clinical grounds. The study group comprised 551 patients with no obvious predisposing cause. Of 211 patients with trigger finger, 91 (43%) also had CTS. This prevalence is substantially higher than the population prevalence of CTS of approximately 4%. Our data support an association between idiopathic CTS and idiopathic trigger finger and lend support to common pathophysiological factors.

Background: The purpose of this study was to identify predictive factors of poor response to intra-flexoral sheath corticosteroid injection, as well as to identify factors associated with patients’ decisions to undergo surgical treatment. Methods: Data from 112 patients who received steroid injection treatment for trigger finger were reviewed retrospectively. Logistic regression was used to assess the prognostic value of factors assumed to affect prognosis (age, sex, underlying disease, history of illness, presence of carpal tunnel syndrome, multiple digit involvement, and pre- and post-operative disability scores). Results: Multiple digits were affected in 42 patients. Associated and underlying conditions were carpal tunnel syndrome (n = 36), hypertension (n = 23), hyperlipidemia (n = 14), and history of malignant tumor (n = 10). Logistic regression analysis showed that multiple digit involvement and Froimson clinical severity score were factors significantly associated with surgical treatment after intra-flexoral sheath corticosteroid injection treatment. These two factors were also found to be associated with the patients’ decisions to undergo surgical treatment. Conclusions: Although local corticosteroid injection is useful in most cases, providers need to counsel patients with multiple digit involvement and/or severe cases about the possibility of requiring additional surgical treatment.

Abstract Introduction  The aim of the study was to estimate recurrence rates, time to recurrence, and predisposing factors for recurrence of trigger finger when treated with corticosteroid (CS) injection as primary treatment. Materials and Methods In a retrospective chart review, we identified primary trigger fingers treated with CS injection as primary treatment. Affected hand and finger, recurrence, time to recurrence, duration of symptoms, secondary treatment type, and comorbidities were recorded. A total of 539 patients were included with a mean follow-up of 47.6 months Results In total, 330/539 (61%) recurrences were registered. Mean time to recurrence was 312 days. Increased risk of recurrence was seen after treatment of the third finger (relative risk [RR]: 1.22; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.06–1.39). Several comorbidities were associated with increased risk of recurrence: carpal tunnel syndrome (RR: 1.27; 95% CI: 1.07–1.52), thyroid disease (RR: 1.45; 95% CI: 1.15–1.83), or shoulder diseases (RR: 1.58; 95% CI: 1.36–1.83). Conclusion We found a recurrence rate after primary treatment of CS injection for trigger finger of 61%. Most recurrences happened within 2 years and we found treatment of third finger, carpal tunnel syndrome, shoulder, or thyroid disease to be associated with an increased risk of recurrence of symptoms.
