Abstract
- Avulsion injury of the flexor digitorum profundus tendon from distal phalanx is considered as a rare injury. Accrording to the classification by Leddy and Pacter, this case is Type III, which is a large bony fragment retained by the tendon. The distal pulley prevents retraction beyond the middle phalanx. We are reporting a case with brief review of literatures.
