Among them, 30 patients were treated with ultrasound-guided needle release of the A1 pulley with corticosteroid injection (group A) and 30 patients were treated with single ultrasound-guided corticosteroids injection (group B). The following parameters were evaluated including clinical parameters (pain degree, function of joint, finger tendon function, postoperative satisfaction), and ultrasound parameter (thickness of A1 pulley).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>RESULTS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The postoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) and Quinnell scores in two groups were significantly lower than that before operation ( p\u200a&lt;\u200a0.05). The postoperative Quinnell score of group A was significantly lower than that in group B ( p\u200a&lt;\u200a0.05). The TAM results showed that the postoperative overall excellent and good rate of group A was significantly higher than that in group B ( p\u200a&lt;\u200a0.05). The postoperative survey showed that more than 80% patients reported satisfaction in the two groups. The ultrasound imaging results showed that the postoperative thickness of A1 pulley in two groups were thinner than that before operation ( p\u200a&lt;\u200a0.05). There were no adverse effects and complications in the two groups.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Both approaches had treatment benefit in trigger finger.
