ABSTRACT
Tenosynovitis is an inflammatory condition of tendons or tendon sheaths. This condition can grossly be divided into reactive or proliferative tenosynovitis (Table 1). Reactive processes are much more common than are proliferative processes. Reactive tenosynovitis includes trigger digits and extensor tendinitis (e.g., de Quervain’s, intersection syndrome, etc). Proliferative disorders are inflammatory and erosive.
