Manipulation under anesthesia (MUA) or fibrosis release procedures [1] is a noninvasive procedure to treat chronic pain which has been unmanageable by other methods. MUA is designed not only to relieve pain, but also to break up excessive scar tissue.
They found that PRP-treated patients rated their results significantly better using validated patient rated outcomes measures. [17] A 2021 systematic review by the Cochrane Library examined PRP and autologous whole blood injections and concluded that it was "uncertain" if PRP or autologous whole blood injections improved elbow tendon healing.

The technique of thread trigger finger release is the application of Guo Technique [2] and the procedure is similar to that of the thread carpal tunnel release. [ 3 ] The successful rate of TTFR is high and there are almost no complications such as incomplete release, neurovascular or flexor tendon or A2 pulley injury, infection, bow string, or ...
Replantation or reattachment is defined as the surgical reattachment of a body part (such as a finger, hand, or toe) that has been completely cut from the body. [1] Examples include reattachment of a partially or fully amputated finger, or reattachment of a kidney that had had an avulsion-type injury.
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) or leukocyte- and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) is a derivative of PRP where autologous platelets and leukocytes are present in a complex fibrin matrix [1] [2] to accelerate the healing of soft and hard tissue [3] and is used as a tissue-engineering scaffold in oral and maxillofacial surgeries. PRF falls under FDA ...
This procedure has been deemed controversial at times, especially when used by athletes.In 2005, the World Anti-Doping Agency ruled that blood-spinning could be used to introduce banned substances, [2] and in 2010 the agency went as far as banning the use of intramuscular injections of PRP in competitive athletes amid some concerns that it boosted performance-enhancing growth factors. [3]
Trigger finger, also known as stenosing tenosynovitis, is a disorder characterized by catching or locking of the involved finger in full or near full flexion, typically with force. [2] There may be tenderness in the palm of the hand near the last skin crease (distal palmar crease ). [ 3 ]
A magnet in the process of insertion into the tip of the ring finger. The magnets used for implantation must be carefully selected and coated in order to successfully implant them. Size is important in this consideration, as too large of a magnet obstructs blood vessels and is likely to reject, or push out of the skin.
