Abstract

In the last years, with the technical advances in ultrasound, image quality has improved, which has enabled surgeons to enhance their ability to perform hand and wrist evaluations. Ultrasound-guided infiltrations in hand surgery are more precise and safer compared to those not guided by ultrasound. The development of the ultrasound technique and of high-resolution transducers helps us to perform ultrasound-guided procedures, such as the treatment of trigger finger, carpal tunnel syndrome release and aponeurotomy in Dupuytren disease. The aim of the present paper is to describe the ultrasound techniques used in the treatment of hand disorders and the state of the art in ultrasound-guided hand surgeries and their outcomes.
