We report a rare case of radial dislocation of the extensor tendon over the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint of the thumb. Ulnar dislocation has been reported, but previous reports have not mentioned radial dislocation of the extensor tendon in the thumb. Radial dislocation of the extensor tendon of the thumb gradually progressed after cerebral hemorrhage and the patient could not extend MCP joint of the thumb. To resolve difficulty in extending the MCP joint, surgical centralization of the extensor tendon and partial resection of the flexor pollicis brevis (FPB) and abductor pollicis brevis (APB) insertions was performed. The patient recovered function of thumb extensors.

We report a case of rotatory subluxation of the metacarpophalangeal joint (MCPJ) of the finger. A 40-year-old man sustained an open injury to his index finger following an explosive injury. Radiographs showed rotatory subluxation of the index finger MCPJ. The index finger extensor digitorium was found interposed in the MCPJ, with a complete tear of the radial collateral ligament. Treatment was by open reduction and repair of the collateral ligament and the extensor tendon. A high level of clinical suspicion is needed to diagnose this entity.

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.

Intrinsic Muscles

A case with spontaneous extensor tendon dislocation was treated operatively. Right hand was more severely affected with contracture of the metacarpophalangeal joints. Centralisation of the extensor tendons and sectioning of ulnar intrinsic muscles sufficed correction of the pathology. No recurrence occurred in the last 24 months.

We treated a rare case of locked metacarpophalangeal joint of the little finger due to a hyperextension injury. The mechanism of the occurrence was considered to be closely similar to those that happened in the thumb, and the locking was successfully released by a manual reduction without complication.

A Taekwondo participant sustained a hand injury from punching an opponent that resulted in painful instability of the ring finger extensor digitorum communis tendon due to sagittal band damage. His symptoms resolved after reconstructive surgery on the sagittal band (SB) with stabilization of the extensor tendon over the metacarpophalangeal joint.
