Summary

Introduction

De Quervain’s tenosynovitis (DQV) is a common hand disorder causing pain along the radial side of the wrist in patients. Patients are mainly in the age groups of forties to sixties. They may feel difficulties in performing daily activities that involve the movement of thumb and wrist. De Quervain’s tenosynovitis (DQV) is a painful condition in which patients may feel tenderness and soreness at the radial side of the wrist near the radial styloid [1]. The occurrence of neutrophil elastase and cyclooxygenase, and the corresponding effects on the collagen structure in the extensor retinaculum samples collected from patients with DQV, indicate the presence of inflammation in the FDC in DQV [4].
