Abstract：
Linburg-Comstock syndrome is an acquired symptomatic restrictive thumb index finger flexor tenosynovitis involving a hypertrophic tenosynovium between flexor pollicis longus and flexor digitorum profundus. Patients may report synkinetic movement of the thumb and index finger, pain and swelling. We present the case of a woman in her 80s who presented with painless Linburg-Comstock syndrome after a trapeziectomy 4 months earlier for trapeziometacarpal arthritis. A literature review of PubMed-indexed case reports found that Linburg-Comstock syndrome has never been described in a post-trapeziectomy patient. This unusual presentation that arose as a side effect of hand surgery remains unreported in the literature. We present this unique complication as the first such case in the world. This case report is a valuable addition to the existing knowledge on the complications of trapeziectomy surgery.
摘要：
Linburg-Comstock综合征是一种获得性有症状的限制性拇指食指屈肌腱鞘炎，涉及长屈肌和指深屈肌之间的肥大性腱鞘。患者可能会报告拇指和食指的同步运动，疼痛和肿胀。我们介绍了一名80多岁的女性，该女性在4个月前因梯形掌骨关节炎进行梯形切除术后出现无痛的Linburg-Comstock综合征。对PubMed索引病例报告的文献综述发现，从未在梯形切除术后的患者中描述过Linburg-Comstock综合征。作为手外科副作用而出现的这种不寻常的表现在文献中尚未报道。我们将这种独特的并发症作为世界上第一个这样的案例。此病例报告是对现有的有关梯形切除术并发症的知识的宝贵补充。
