Ochronotic stenosing flexor tenosynovitis--case report

H Seradge. J Hand Surg Am. 1981 Jul.

Abstract

Localized deposition of ochronotic pigment in the flexor digitorum profundus tendons was associated with triggering of the fingers in one patient. The case history and histologic studies suggest that repetitive trauma might be a major factor in initiating a localized reaction enhancing pigment deposition in the flexor tendon.
