Abstract:
Objective To explore the technical point of methylene blue staining for aponeurotic cyst′s resection in wrist for decrease the recurrence. Methods Fifty-six patients with aponeurotic cysts in wrist were divided into two groups, the control group: 33 patients accepted conventional aponeurotic cyst′s resection, the experimental group: 23 patients accepted the same operation along with methylene blue staining technique. Results In control group, 28 cases of aponeurotic cysts were ruptured in operation, rupture rate was 84.8%, recurrence was seen in 6 cases, recurrent rate was 18.2%. In experimental group, 17 cases of blue-stained aponeurotic cysts were ruptured in the operation, rupture rate was 73.9%. No recurrence was seen in this group. Recurrent rate in experimental group was significantly lower than that of control group (P0.05). Conclusions Methylene blue staining technique in the operation of aponeurotic cyst′s resection is helpful in confirming the base of cysts, completely removing cysts and reducing the recurrent rate.This method is both operable and feasible.
