Özet:

 


Mallet
finger deformity is a common hand injury and usually occurs after a direct
impact of sudden and extreme trauma forcing the distal interphalangeal joint to
get flexion with an extended proximal interphalangeal joint. Deformity is
especially associated with ball use disrupting the extensor mechanism at the
base of distal phalanx. Mallet finger deformity in acute stage can be treated
by immobilization of distal interphalangeal joint with hyperextension splints.
But the surgery becomes the choice in delayed cases and if there is a fracture
including more than one third of articular surface of distal interphalangeal
joint or distal phalanx volar subluxation. In the literature there are great
sum of studies including mallet finger deformities as simultaneous, bilateral
or multiple variations and treatment strategies. But in the literautre there is
no study about simultaneous bony mallet fingers deformity reported. Here, we
present the case of a 30 year old female with simultaneous bony mallet fingers
in the third and fourth ray and the conservative treatment of with splinting
for six weeks. At the last time follow up the patient was able to use her hand
without any diffuculty and she had full range of motion of distal
interphalangel joint.
