Avulsion injury of the flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) with concomitant fracture of the distal phalanx dorsal base is uncommon. Simultaneous avulsion fractures of the insertion of this tendon associated with rupture of the tendon from the bony fragment and combination with dorsal base fracture is very rare and also complicated. A 36- year- old man fell and injured his right little finger. FDP ...

Flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) tendon avulsion is a common injury in sports. This is secondary to forced extension against flexor digitorum profundus contraction. However, avulsion injury of the FDP tendon secondary to an enchondroma of the distal phalanx is extremely rare. There have only been three previous reports of such an occurrence. This report describes a fourth case of an avulsion in...

Closed avulsion of the flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) tendon is classified based on the impact of injury on the management plan. In this report, we present a case with unclassified pattern of FDP tendon avulsion. The injury involves an intra-articular fracture of the volar part of distal phalanx of the little finger resulting into two bony fragments, one attached to the retracted avulsed tend...

An avulsion of the flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) tendon from its insertion is typically described as a jersey finger. The patient in this case presented with pain and loss of motion of his dominant ring finger after grasping the jersey of an opposing American football player in an attempt to tackle him. This mechanism is typical of a jersey finger; however, his injury included avulsions from...
