Ultrasonographic study of the thumb pulleys and their entheses: correlations with anatomy and histology
Objectives The entheseal nature of digital annular pulleys insertion was recently described, with high resolution ultrasound (US) reliably identifying these submillimetre structures with impressive accuracy. Since the thumb was not examined, the aim of the present study was to characterise the thumb...
