HUMAN PHENOTYPE - ANNOTATIONS

The Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) is downloaded weekly from http://compbio.charite.de/hudson/job/hpo/lastStableBuild/artifact/ontology/release/hp.obo. The file downloaded is considered the "last stable build" available for the ontology. For more about the HPO, view their website at http://www.human-phenotype-ontology.org/.

Definition:Inflammation of the flexor digitorum tendon, often associated with the Kanavel signs: (i) finger held in slight flexion, (ii) fusiform swelling, (iii) tenderness along the flexor tendon sheath, and (iv) pain with passive extension of the digit.
Comment:Tenosynovitis refers to inflammation of the protective sheath that surrounds a tendon. Stenosing tenosynovitis, or trigger finger, is diagnosed when a patient presents with a symptomatic locking or clicking of a finger or the thumb. It is caused by a mismatch between the volume of the flexor tendon sheath and its contents. As the flexor tendon attempts to glide through a relatively stenotic sheath, it catches, producing an inability to flex or extend the digit smoothly.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: Trigger finger;   stenosing tenosynovitis
