| Tendovaginitis stenosans and Morbus Raynaud also must not be confused with true rheumatism. |
| In tendovaginitis, it is chiefly the movement of the fingers that is disturbed, while in arthritis of the wrist it is chiefly movements of the hand as a whole that are concerned. |
| Stenosing tendovaginitis at the radial styloid process has become accepted as an industrial disability. |
| Tendovaginitis stenosans is one of the most frequent causes of functional disorder of the hand. |
| Consequently, there is often concurrent pain at the wrist with restricted radial abduction, a painful styloid process of the radius, and/or painful tendovaginitis, especially on the radial aspect. |
