Understanding the Importance of Hand Surgery
Hand surgery is a specialized field of medicine focused on treating conditions and injuries affecting the hands and upper extremities. It encompasses a wide range of procedures aimed at restoring the function, appearance, and overall health of the hands. Whether you're dealing with a congenital defect, arthritic changes, traumatic injury, or overuse injury, hand surgery can offer relief and improvement.
Common Conditions Treated with Hand Surgery
At Guy Trengrove-Jones MD, PC, we treat a variety of hand conditions with surgical precision and compassionate care. Some common conditions we address include:
1. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common condition caused by pressure on the median nerve in the wrist. It leads to symptoms such as numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand. Surgical release of the carpal tunnel can alleviate these symptoms and restore hand function.
2. Trigger Finger
Trigger finger occurs when a finger gets stuck in a bent position and snaps back straight. This condition can be painful and limit hand movement. Surgery can release the constricted tendon sheath, allowing smooth finger movement.
3. Dupuytren's Contracture
Dupuytren's contracture is a condition where the tissues in the palm thicken, forming nodules and cords that pull the fingers into a bent position. Surgical intervention can release these cords, improving hand function and appearance.
4. Fractures and Traumatic Injuries
Hand fractures and traumatic injuries can result from accidents or sports activities and require prompt attention. Surgical repair helps realign bones, restore function, and ensure proper healing.
5. Arthritis
Arthritis in the hands can cause pain, stiffness, and deformities. Hand surgery can improve joint function, alleviate pain, and restore the aesthetics of the hands.
Innovative Techniques and Technologies in Hand Surgery
Our practice is committed to staying at the forefront of hand surgery advancements, utilizing innovative techniques that enhance patient outcomes and recovery. Some of the innovations we employ include:
1. Minimally Invasive Surgery
Minimally invasive surgical techniques, such as endoscopic carpal tunnel release, allow for smaller incisions, reduced scarring, and faster recovery times. These techniques are particularly effective for conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, where precision is crucial.
2. Microsurgery
Microsurgery involves using specialized instruments and techniques to perform intricate operations on small structures like nerves and blood vessels. This approach is essential for complex hand surgeries, such as reconstructing traumatic injuries or repairing nerve damage.
3. Advanced Imaging Technology
State-of-the-art imaging equipment, such as MRI and CT scans, provides detailed views of the hand’s internal structures. These images guide our surgeons in accurately diagnosing conditions and planning surgical interventions.
4. Customized Rehabilitation
Post-operative rehabilitation is an integral part of the hand surgery process. Our team collaborates with physical therapists to create personalized rehabilitation plans that promote healing, restore function, and enhance aesthetics.
