ABSTRACT
There is now a need more than ever to streamline services. A one-stop shoulder clinic was introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 861 patients were seen, saving 794 future appointments. 111 patients had an ultrasound scan and 285 patients had an ultrasound-guided procedure, saving an average waiting time of 134 days. 327 patients had physiotherapy, and the average Oxford Shoulder Score improved by 8.56 at 1 year.

Peripheral venous cannulation is one of the most commonly performed medical procedures in hospital medicine. The dorsal metacarpal veins are typically used for cannulation as they are easily accessible. We present the first case of an iatrogenic intratendinous ganglion cyst of the extensor digitorum tendon of the middle finger following intravenous cannulation.
