Flexor Digitorum Profundus Tendon

We report a case of avulsion of the flexor digitorum profundus secondary to recurrent enchondroma. The tumor was curetted with bone grafting of cancellous bone from the distal radius, and the fragment avulsed by the flexor digitorum profundus tendon was fixed to its original site using a pullout suture through the distal phalanx to the nail. The lesion healed and function recovered 6 years after surgery.

Flexor Digitorum

Flexor Digitorum Profundus avulsion injury associated with an enchondroma at the level of the distal phalanx is extremely rare. There have been few cases reported to date and most have been surgically managed using a screw and/or Bunnell pull-out wire technique with or without bone grafting. We describe the first case using a simple interosseus fixation technique for the reattachment of FDP tendon without bone grafting. The patient made an excellent post-operative recovery. This technique is a simple, effective, patient-friendly and internalised solution which, in addition, may prevent the need for bone grafting.

Current Classification System

Four cases of avulsion of the insertion of the flexor digitorum profundus tendon with an osseous fragment are presented. In each case, there was another significant fracture of the distal phalanx. The current classification system for flexor profundus avulsions is reviewed and an extended classification is offered which considers such avulsions.
