Today's hand edition covers four diverse topics in hand surgery. We examine a novel sonographic phenotyping framework for trigger finger that challenges traditional A1-centric treatment approaches, review evidence on early return to play protocols after metacarpal and scaphoid fractures in athletes, analyze a randomized trial comparing needle electrolysis to surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome, and explore antimicrobial resistance patterns in hand surgery infections.
