Tendon Ruptures

Acute cutaneous leishmaniasis is a parasitic infectious disease prevalent in tropical areas. Most doctors in non-endemic countries are not familiar with this disease. Spontaneous tendon ruptures occurring by different mechanisms have been described in the literature but a tendon rupture caused by a skin ulcer secondary to a parasitic infection has not been reported before. In this article clinical and diagnostic features of cutaneous leishmaniasis are reviewed and a case with spontaneous extensor tendon rupture due to cutaneous leishmaniasis is presented.

AbstractBilateral extensor tendon ruptures of the knee are not uncommon. However, simultaneous ruptures of the patellar tendon (PT) and contralateral quadriceps tendon (QT) are relatively rare injuries. These ruptures are frequently associated with chronic renal failure and minor trauma. However, they can occur spontaneously in healthy individuals. In this case report, a 43-year-old male with chronic renal failure who sustained bilateral extensor tendon ruptures (right knee: QT rupture, left knee: PT rupture) following an alternating current electrical shock was reported. To our knowledge, simultaneous quadriceps and contralateral patellar tendon rupture following an electric shock have not been reported yet. Etiology, mechanism of injury and treatment options of this rare injury are discussed together with a thorough literature review.

This is a case report of a fifty-nine-year-old rheumatoid arthritic woman who developed lack in finger extension bilaterally. These deficits had two completely different aetiologies, Posterior Interosseous Nerve (PIN) Syndrome and extensor tendon rupture. No previous report in the literature has used elbow arthrography as a diagnostic tool in a patient with PIN Syndrome. Elbow arthrography confirmed the abnormality at this joint and aided in appropriate management.

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.
