16
Q

What imaging is needed to assess collateral ligament or volar plate injuries (fingers)?

A

AP and lateral views to r/o fx, ensure proper reduction and congruency of the joint

17
Q

Who typically gets gamekeeper’s thumb?

A

Skiers
Basketball players
Ball-handling athletes

18
Q

What is the MOI of gamekeepers’ thumb?

A

Forceful radial deviation of the proximal phalanx at the MCP joint

19
Q

What is a Stener’s lesion?

A

Complex tears l/t entrapment of the adductor aponeurosis in the MCP joint and impair healing

20
Q

What indicates instability on radiographs in gamekeeper’s thumb?

A

Radial deviation >40° in extension and >20° in flexion

21
Q

What is the treatment of gamekeeper’s thumb?

A
  • Short arm cast with thumb spica splint

* Stener’s lesion with failure to heal may need surgical treatment

22
Q

What is a jersey finger?

A

Complete or incomplete injury to the flexor tendon (superficialis and/or profundus)

23
Q

What is the classic MOI of a jersey finger?

A

A player’s finger gets caught in the jersey of another when attempting to grab him

24
Q

Which digit is typically involved in a jersey finger?

A

4th digit

25
Q

What is the clinical presentation of a jersey finger?

A

Patient unable to actively flex the DIP joint

26
Q

Describe testing of FDP.

A

Flex the DIP while the PIP joint is held in extension

FDS action eliminated with PIP in extension

27
Q

Describe testing of FDS.

A

Hold the DIP of the noninvolved digits in extension and flex the unrestrained digit

28
Q

What is the MOI of a mallet finger?

A

Sudden passive flexion of the DIP joint when the finger is extended, causing a rupture of the extensor tendon

29
Q

What can occur with a mallet finger injury?

A

Avulsion fracture of the distal phalanx

30
Q

What is the conservative treatment of a mallet finger?

A

Splinting of the DIP in extension for 6 to 8 weeks with a stack splint or custom-made splint

31
Q

What should be done after 6 weeks of conservative treatment of a mallet finger?

A

Gentle active flexion with night splinting should be done for 2 to 4 weeks

32
Q

When is surgery indicated for mallet finger?

A

Poor healing

Avulsed fragment involves >1/3 of the joint
