First Case

Osteochondroma rarely develops from the carpal bones. We report a first case in which a dorsal osteochondroma of the lunate caused attritional rupture of the tendon of the extensor indicis proprius and a tendon of the extensor digitorum communis of index finger.

Extensor Compartment

Accessory extensor tendons in the hand are not rare, usually asymptomatic, and recognized incidentally during elective surgery or cadaveric dissection. This report describes a novel case of symptomatic duplication of accessory extensor tendons to both the thumb and the index finger causing a painful dorsal wrist tenosynovitis. Excision of the accessory tendons with decompression and tenosynovectomy of the fourth extensor compartment alleviated the patient’s symptoms without compromising motion or function.

Extensor Tendons

Finger extensor tendon dislocation at the metacarpophalangeal joint is caused by various etiologies, such as trauma, congenital anomaly, or rheumatoid arthritis. When the dislocation occurs with no etiology, this is called spontaneous dislocation. Although spontaneous extensor tendon dislocation in one, two or three fingers has been described, to our knowledge, simultaneous dislocation in four fingers has not been reported. In this paper, we report a spontaneous ulnar dislocation of all the extensor tendons in the index, long, ring, and small fingers. Repair of the radial sagittal bands of the extensor digitorum communis of the middle and ring fingers reduced dislocation of all the extensor tendons in four fingers.

The Common

Innumerable descriptions about variations in the pattern of extensor tendons are recorded in the literature. The dorsum of the hand in an adult male cadaver revealed an unusual pattern of extensor arrangement during a gross anatomical practical session. The extensor digitorum, extensor indicis and extensor digiti minimi tendons displayed a variant pattern. Extensor digitorum contributed tendons only to the middle and ring fingers, with junctura tendinum present between the extensor digitorum for the ring finger and extensor digiti minimi. Interestingly, an accessory muscle was observed arising from the common extensor origin passing to the index finger, in addition to the usual extensor indicis. The origin and insertion of extensor digiti minimi was as usual with an accessory slip contributed from the extensor carpi ulnaris to the proximal phalanx of the fifth finger. The plethora of variations in this region is of paramount importance for the reconstructive surgeon, who may utilize the accessory tendons to restore functional capacity of the fingers.
