Advanced Orthopaedic Hand & Wrist Care Surgical Solutions

When surgery is necessary, our surgeons are skilled in the latest techniques, including minimally invasive procedures and arthroscopic surgery. Some of the hand and wrist surgeries we perform include:

Carpal Tunnel Release

This procedure is used to treat carpal tunnel syndrome, a condition where the median nerve in the wrist is compressed, leading to numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand. During the surgery, the surgeon cuts the ligament pressing on the nerve to relieve the pressure.

Trigger Finger Release

Trigger finger is a condition where one of the fingers or thumb gets stuck in a bent position and then straightens with a snap, like a trigger being pulled and released. The surgery involves releasing the affected tendon to allow for smoother movement of the finger.

Ganglion Cyst Removal

Ganglion cysts are noncancerous lumps that often develop along the tendons or joints of the wrists or hands. Surgery involves removing the cyst and sometimes a portion of the joint capsule or tendon sheath.

Wrist Arthroscopy

This minimally invasive procedure is used to diagnose and treat wrist joint problems. It involves inserting a small camera and instruments through small incisions to visualize and repair damaged tissues or ligaments in the wrist.

Hand Fracture Repair

Fractures in the bones of the hand or wrist may require surgery to realign the bones and stabilize them with pins, screws, or plates to facilitate proper healing.

Tendon Repair

Surgery may be required to repair a torn tendon in the hand or wrist. The surgeon will reattach the torn ends of the tendon and may use sutures or other techniques to strengthen the repair.
