Abstract :AİM: To evaluate the clinical and functional outcomes of the patients with trigger finger patients who are treated by open surgery method without applying conservative treatment modalities METHODS: Open A1 pulley surgical release under local anesthesia was applied to 67 trigger finger patients ( 45 female, 22 male, mean age 53,82, range 11-81). The mean follow-up was 38,37 months (range 4-76 months). As assosiated pathologies, there were type 2 DM in 14 and chronic renal failure in 1 patients. RESULTS: In 67 patients pain and triggering were found to be treated by open surgical A1 pulley release. No recurrence seen in triggering nodularity.
