About this listen
In this podcast. Dr. Larry Hurst takes you through details of Mallet Finger
The classic "mallet finger" injury involves the forced flexion of the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint while the finger is in active extension and results from the disruption in continuity of the extensor tendon over the DIP joint. There are four types of mallet finger injuries, including open and closed forms, and treatment depends on the patient’s age, mechanism of injury, duration of the deformity, associated fractures and presence of osteoarthritis. Chronic mallet finger may lead to swan neck deformity.
