Jim h,

True: Even our beloved Eaton is less than impressed with French record keeping of their clinical data. All US CHS *do* look down their noses at the "very casual" approach taken by the French, at least by American standards (And the French must think we are Anal).

So, only data like Eaton is gathering will hold sway in this court. And, it's not even worth publishing until he has *five* years of data showing rates of recurrence. So, not wanting to wait until then, he's going to take three years worth and do a little Show and Tell at the annual meeting of the American Society for Surgery of the Hand in the fall of 2006. He should have 2,000 procedures by then.

One would think that after *that*, we'll have your Rocket. So far, Zero nerve damage, minimal side effects. (Hey CHSs, 'ya still think picking up a *knife* is the very best place to start?)

Please do not post messages which are not relevant to this posting. It is often hard to find what one is looking for when postings other than the titled subject are made.
Thanks
