A 59-year-old man suffered from subcutaneous rupture of the flexor tendon of the little finger associated with fracture of the hook of hamate. He could not flex his little finger completely at the distal interphalangeal joint, but incomplete flexion of the proximal interphalangeal joint was possible. Surgical exploration revealed anomaly of the flexor digitorum superficialis of the little finger, as it originated from the palmar aspect of the carpal ligament, and a small portion of the muscle belly was traversed toward the A1 pulley over the profundus tendon and then it ran into the A1 pulley as a normal superficialis tendon. The flexor digitorum superficialis of the little finger is well known to show variations, but our case is extremely rare, and furthermore there are no reports in the available literatures about the function of this anomalous muscle.

We present seven cases of a relatively rare swan neck deformity resulting from chronic radial collateral ligament (RCL) injury of the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint in the little finger. All patients were middle-aged women (mean 51 years old, range 42–55), and the duration between the initial injury and surgery was 20 years (range 5–40). The chief complaint was painful snapping of the PIP joint. All patients had hyperextension and ulnar deviation of the PIP joint with mobile swan neck deformities that had not improved with conservative treatment. Radiographs revealed osteoarthritis and ulnar deviation of the PIP joints in all cases. We describe a method for reconstruction of both the palmar plate and the RCL of the affected PIP joint using a distally-based ulnar slip of flexor superficialis tendon. The prevention of PIP joint hyperextension was critical for successful resolution of symptoms; the aim of RCL augmentation was to prevent the recurrence of the deformity. Level of evidence: IV

Lateral Dislocation

We present a rare case of a lateral dislocation of the proximal interphalangeal joint that required open reduction. During an operation, we found the collateral ligament and the capsule interposing into the joint space. After reducing the soft tissue and reproducing the collateral ligament with a suture anchor, sufficient joint stability and full range of motion was achieved.
