Mga Buto at Pagkabulok sa Kamay, Pulso, at Daliri Impormasyon
Ano ang nararamdaman mo
Maaaring mapansin mo ang maliit na buntong sa likod ng iyong pulso. Karaniwan itong isang sac na puno ng likido na tinatawag na ganglion cyst. Maaari itong maramdaman na matigas o esponghoso. May mga taong nararamdaman ang sakit sa lugar na ito, lalo na kung ang buntong ay pumipindot sa mga kalapit na nerbiyos o kasu-kasuan. Maaaring lumala ang sakit kapag yumuyuko ka ng iyong pulso o naglalagay ng bigat sa iyong kamay. Maaari kang maramdaman ang mahinang sakit pagkatapos gamitin ang iyong kamay para sa mga gawain tulad ng pag-type, pagdala ng mga pagkain sa tindahan, o paggawa ng mga gawaing bahay.
Kung ang buntong ay nasa palad na bahagi ng iyong pulso, maaari kang maramdaman ang pagkakabigat o hindi komportableng pakiramdam. Maaari nitong gawing mahirap na hawakan nang mahigpit ang mga bagay. Maaaring makita mong nagiging mahirap ang mga pang-araw-araw na kilos. Halimbawa, ang pag-ikot ng hawakan ng pinto o paghawak ng tasa ng kape ay maaaring maramdaman na kakaiba o masakit. Sa ilang kaso, ang buntong mismo ay walang sakit, ngunit maaari itong maging nakakairita dahil sa sukat o itsura nito.
Ang mga bata na wala pang sampung taong gulang ay madalas na nakakakuha ng mga buntong na ito sa palad na bahagi ng pulso. Sa mga kasing ito, ang buntong ay madalas na nawawala nang sarili. Humigit-kumulang 69% hanggang 79% ng mga buntong na ito sa kabataan ay nawawala sa loob ng 12 hanggang 18 buwan nang walang anumang paggamot. Kung ikaw ay isang matanda, ang buntong ay maaaring manatili nang mas matagal. Maaari itong lumabas at mawala. Minsan ito ay nagpapaliit, upang bumalik pagkatapos.
Maaari mo ring mapansin ang maliit na buntong sa iyong daliri. Maaari itong maging iba't ibang uri ng paglago, tulad ng lipoma (isang benign na buntong na tuyo). Karaniwan itong malambot at gumagalaw nang bahagya sa ilalim ng balat. Bihirang magdulot ng sakit maliban na kung ito ay pumipindot sa isang sensitibong bagay. Gayunpaman, ang anumang bagong buntong ay dapat suriin ng iyong surgeon upang matiyak na hindi ito mas seryoso.
Ang antas ng sakit ay maaaring mag-iba. Kung mayroon kang itong isyu sa loob ng mahabang panahon, o kung ito ay nasa iyong dominanteng kamay, maaari kang maramdaman ang mas maraming hindi komportableng pakiramdam pagkatapos ng operasyon. Ito ay normal. Ang iyong surgeon ay talakayin ang mga paraan upang pamahalaan ang sakit na ito. Tandaan, ang layunin ay tulungan kang bumalik sa iyong mga pang-araw-araw na gawain nang walang sakit. Maging ito ay ang pag-abot sa likod ng iyong likod upang isara ang bra o ang pagtupi ng isang kamiseta, gusto mong gumana ang iyong kamay nang maayos. Ang iyong surgeon ay gabayin ka sa pinakamahusay na mga pagpipilian para sa iyong partikular na sitwasyon.
Ano ang nangyayari talaga
Ang ganglion ay isang sac na puno ng likido na bumubuo malapit sa iyong mga kasukasuan o tendon. Isipin ito tulad ng maliit na water balloon. Madalas itong lumitaw sa likod ng iyong pulso o sa palad. Ang likido sa loob nito ay makapal at parang hulyo, katulad ng lubricant na nagpapanatili ng maayos na galaw ng iyong mga kasukasuan. Lumalaki ang sac na ito kapag may sobrang likido na tumatagas mula sa joint capsule, na ang matigas na sleeve na nakakubli sa iyong kasukasuan.
Ang mga buntong ito ay karaniwang walang panganib ngunit maaaring magdulot ng abala. Maaari itong magdulot ng sakit o magpahirap sa pagbaluktot ng iyong pulso o mga daliri. Sa ilang kaso, pinipindot ng buntong ito ang mga kalapit na nerbiyos o tendon. Ang pindot na ito ang nagdudulot ng kaguluhan o kahinaan na nararamdaman mo. Susuriin ng iyong surgeon ang lugar upang matukoy kung ang buntong ito ay ganglion, trigger finger, o ibang uri ng nodule. Ang maingat na physical exam ay tumutulong na kilalanin ang mga karaniwang kondisyong ito.
Sa mga bata na may edad na hindi hihigit sa 10 taon, madalas lumitaw ang mga buntong ito sa harap ng pulso. Ang magandang balita ay madalas itong nawawala nang sarili. Humigit-kumulang 69% hanggang 79% ng mga ganglion sa mga bata ay nawawala sa loob ng 12 hanggang 18 buwan nang walang anumang operasyon. Para sa mga matatanda, mas maliit ang pagkakataon na lutasin ng katawan ang isyung ito nang natural. Kung nananatili ang buntong ito, maaaring imungkahi ng iyong surgeon na punasan ito gamit ang karayom muna. Ang hakbang na ito ay makakatulong sa pamamahala ng mga gastusin at sintomas bago isaalang-alang ang mas invasive na mga pagpipilian.
Ang ibang mga buntong sa iyong kamay o mga daliri ay maaaring solidong paglago ng taba na tinatawag na lipomas. Ang mga ito ay benign na tumor na gawa sa taba. Karaniwan itong malambot at bahagyang gumagalaw sa ilalim ng balat. Hindi tulad ng mga ganglion, wala itong likido. Karamihan sa mga lipomas sa mga daliri ay maliit at walang problema. Gayunpaman, kung lumaki ito o magdulot ng sakit, maaaring irekomenda ng iyong surgeon ang pag-alis nito. Ang simpleng pag-alis ay madalas na nagdudulot ng magandang resulta na walang pagbabalik ng buntong ito sa maikli hanggang katamtamang panahon.
Ang pag-unawa kung ano ang mga buntong ito ay tumutulong sa iyo na gumawa ng mga desisyong may kaalaman. Ang ilang kailangan ng watchful waiting, habang ang iba ay nangangailangan ng intervention. Gabayin ka ng iyong surgeon batay sa tiyak na uri ng buntong ito at kung paano ito nakakaapekto sa iyong pang-araw-araw na buhay.
Ano ang inaasahan
Ang iyong prognosis ay nakadepende sa malaking bahagi sa lokasyon ng bulto at sa iyong edad. Kung ikaw ay isang bata na nasa ilalim ng 10 taong gulang, ang balita ay karaniwang napakabuti. Ang mga ganglion sa grupo ng edad na ito ay pangunahing lumalabas sa harap ng pulso. Madalas silang mawala nang sarili. Sa pagitan ng 69% at 79% ng mga bultong ito ay nawawala nang walang anumang paggamot sa loob ng 12 hanggang 18 buwan. Maaaring irekomenda ng iyong surgeon na tingnan lamang ito ng ilang panahon.
Para sa mga matatanda, iba ang daloy nito. Ang mga ganglion sa likod ng pulso ay mas hindi malamang na maglaan nang spontaneous. Kung iiwan itong mag-isa, maaari itong manatili o lumabas at mawala. Ang bukas na operasyon sa likod ng pulso ay may mataas na mga rate ng pagbabalik, ibig sabihin ay madalas bumalik ang bulto. Ito ang dahilan kung bakit maaaring talakayin ng iyong surgeon ang ibang mga pagpipilian muna.
Kung pipili ka ng aktibong paggamot, ang mga resulta ay karaniwang maganda. Para sa mga cyst sa mga daliri, ang simpleng pag-alis ay karaniwang nagdudulot ng magandang resulta na walang pagbabalik ng bulto sa maikli hanggang katamtamang panahon. Para sa mga ganglion sa pulso, maaaring imungkahi ng iyong surgeon ang pag-drain ng likido gamit ang karayom bago isaalang-alang ang operasyon. Ang hakbang na ito ay makakatulong sa epektibong pamamahala ng mga gastusin at sintomas.
Ang paggaling ay nararamdaman nang iba-iba ng bawat isa. May ilang tao ang nakakaranas ng mas mataas na antas ng sakit pagkatapos ng paggamot kung mayroon silang nakaraang operasyon, mas mahabang tagal ng sintomas, o kung ang apektadong kamay ay ang iyong dominanteng kamay. Talakayin ng iyong surgeon kung paano pamahalaan ang hindi komportableng nararamdaman na ito.
Mahalagang malaman na bihira ngunit posible ang mga komplikasyon. Kung ang iyong ganglion ay matatagpuan malapit sa mga partikular na blood vessel sa harap ng pulso, may kaunting mas mataas na risk ng mga isyu sa loob ng paggamot. Sinusuri ng iyong surgeon ang iyong kamay nang maigi upang i-map ang pinakaligtas na paraan.
Sa kabuuan, ang karamihan sa mga bulto sa kamay at pulso ay madaling pamahalaan. Anuman ang iyong pagpipilian na maghintay na ito ay manatili o magpatuloy sa paggamot, layunin ng iyong surgeon ang isang malinaw na resulta. Inaasahan mo ang unti-unting pagbabalik sa mga karaniwang gawain habang ang lugar ay gumagaling.

Background & Causes
- Giant spindle cell lipoma involving a finger represents an unusual location for a rare variant of giant lipoma [10].
- A persistent median artery with a reversed palmaris longus and volar ganglion represents an anatomic variation in the upper extremity [11].

Management
Diagnosis and Physical Examination
- Distinguishing between a flexor sheath ganglion, trigger digit, and Dupuytren's nodule can be accomplished with a detailed physical examination of the MCP region of the affected digit [1].
Non-Operative Management
- In children aged <10 years, ganglions mainly occur on the volar wrist and can be treated expectantly, with 69% to 79% displaying spontaneous regression within a span of 12-18 months [3].
- Performing at least 1 aspiration before surgical excision improves the cost-effectiveness of dorsal wrist ganglion treatment, as patient preferences may preclude routinely performing 2 aspirations [2].
- There is no difference in reintervention at 1-year between ultrasound-guided versus blind dorsal carpal ganglion aspiration [16].
- Patients who received steroids at the time of aspiration perceived lower rates of recurrence [16].
- Scar massage is widely used as an intervention for post-surgical scars, though few therapists have received formal skills training or completed outcome measures regularly to formally evaluate its clinical efficacy or impact [14].
Operative Management
- Giant cell tumors of the distal phalanx require extensive en bloc excision to prevent local recurrence, as digit-sparing operations may fail to eradicate all tumor foci [9].
- Both curettage and resection/amputation are acceptable treatment options for giant cell tumour of bone in the hand, with treatment decisions needing to be individualized based on the site and extent of disease to minimize treatment morbidity while maximizing disease control [17].
Postoperative Outcomes
- Higher postoperative pain intensity was associated with recurrence following previous surgery, treatment of the dominant hand, higher baseline pain intensity, lower credibility the patient attributes to the treatment and longer symptom duration [8].
Key Considerations
- Performing at least 1 aspiration before surgical excision improves the cost-effectiveness of dorsal wrist ganglion treatment when patient preferences preclude routinely performing 2 aspirations [2].
- Open surgery continues to be an ineffective way of managing cystic soft tissue tumors of the dorsal aspect of the wrist due to high recurrence rates [7].
- Giant cell tumors of the distal phalanx are extremely rare and require extensive en bloc excision to prevent local recurrence, as digit-sparing operations may fail to eradicate all tumor foci [9].
- Resection followed by wrist arthrodesis and structural iliac bone graft achieved satisfactory oncologic and functional results for giant cell tumor of bone, albeit with one-third of all patients experiencing some complications at a minimum of 10 years of follow-up [15].
