Acute trigger wrist and carpal tunnel syndrome due to giant-cell tumour of the flexor sheath

Cubital tunnel syndrome is one of the most common entrapment neuropathies in adults. It is mainly caused by the depression of ulnar nerve from normal structures at the elbow area. Despite the fact that several pathgological entities can be potential mechanisms of the syndrome, the pathogenesis due to benign or malignant neoplasms is extremely rare. In the present report we describe the first case of cubital tunnel syndrome due to giant cell tumour of the tendon sheaths.

Background: Trigger wrist is a rare disease with few reported cases in the literature. This condition presents with painful sensation and a clicking sound during finger or wrist movements. Case Report: In this report, we present a 32-year-old man suffering from trigger wrist along with carpal tunnel syndrome caused by muscle belly hypertrophy and extension to the carpal tunnel. The diagnostic approach and surgical techniques are explained. Conclusion: In cases of trigger wrist associated with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), there may be an underlying cause covering both the trigger wrist and CTS at the volar side of the wrist. Therefore, a precise clinical examination is recommended to avoid unnecessary surgery, releasing of A1 pulley, or steroid injection.
