A Rarely Seen Hyperflexion Deformity of the Distal İnterphalangeal Joints as a Consequence of Partially Lacerated Superficial Flexor Tendons in the Palmar Region

Year 2014, Volume: 36 Issue: 1, - , 20.06.2015

Abstract

ABSTRACT: We present a 35-year-old female patient with an unusual clinical presentation of partially lacerated superficial flexor tendons of the right hand. Although the superficial tendons were partially lacerated, the distal interphalangeal joints of the third and fourth finger were positioned in hyperflexed condition. This rarely seen examination findings and possible mechanisms were discussed in this study.

KEY WORDS: Flexor tendon examination, injury, hand injuries

ÖZET: Sağ elinde yüzeyel fleksör tendonlarının kısmi yırtığı olan 35 yaşındaki kadın hastanın nadir bir klinik tablosunu sunduk. Yüzeyel fleksör tendonların kısmi yırtığı olmasına rağmen, üçüncü ve dördüncü parmak distal interfalangeal eklemler hiperfleksiyon pozisyonunda konumlanmıştır. Bu nadir görülen fizik muayene bulgusu ve olası mekanizmalar bu çalışmada tartışılmıştır. 

ANAHTAR KELİMELER: Fleksör tendon muayenesi; yaralanma; el yaralanmaları
