Описание: The Finkelstein test is used in the diagnosis of De Quervain's syndrome. This fact implies a tenovaginitis and tenosynovitis of the M. extensor pollicis brevis and M. abductor pollicis longus. Finkelstein maneuver is a helpful test to diagnose De Quervain's Tendonitis or first dorsal compartment tendonitis named after the Swiss surgeon Fritz de Quervain. This is a condition brought on by irritation or inflammation of the wrist tendons at the base of the thumb. The inflammation causes the compartment (a tunnel or a sheath) around the tendon to swell and enlarge, making thumb and wrist movement painful. Finkelstein's test is commonly confused with Eichhoff's test, the Eichhoff's test is typically described as the examiner grasping and ulnar deviating the hand when the person has their thumb held within their fist. If sharp pain occurs along the distal radius, Quervain's tenosynovitis is suspected. Eichhoff's test may produce false positive results, while a Finkelstein's test performed by a skilled practitioner is unlikely to produce a false positive.
