De Quervain’s Release
Rothman Institute, Thomas Jefferson University
Asif Ilyas, MD, FACS
Professor of Orthopedic Surgery
Program Director of Hand Surgery

Instead of conducting a De Quervain's release on a patient with stenosing extensor tenosynovitis, Dr. Asif Ilyas walks through the procedure on a cadaver, demonstrating the approach to the first dorsal extensor retinaculum and providing tips to release it without injuring the radial sensory nerve.
