Extensor Pollicis Longus Laceration

DESCRIPTION A 35-year-old man suffered a self-inflicted work injury from a circular saw on the dorsum of the thumb on his nondominant hand, sustaining a total transection of his extensor pollicus longus (EPL) and a concomitant dorsal capsule injury.

Longus colli tendinitis.

A 44-year-old woman presented with a 4-day history of posterior neck pain with associated odynophagia. She denied any previous neck pain, trauma, or upper respiratory infections. Examination revealed bilateral posterior neck pain with decreased active and passive range of motion and tenderness with movement of the hyoid bone. Soft tissue neck radiograph revealed prevertebral soft tissue swellin...

Palmaris Longus Tendon Grafting for Extensor Pollicis Longus Tendon Rupture bScrew Tip after 20 years

INTRODUCTION Spontaneous ruptures of extension pollicis longus tendon predominantly occur after undisplaced or minimally displaced distal radial fracture near Lister tubercle. Systemic inflammatory diseases and systemic or local steroid, mechanical causes like bony ridges, presence of bone plate or external fixator pin may precipitate this. Repetitive uses in certain occupation like cooking, co...

Plantar forces in flexor hallucis longus versus flexor digitorum longus transfer in adult acquired flatfoot deformity.

BACKGROUND Flexor hallucis longus (FHL) and flexor digitorum longus (FDL) tendon transfers are frequently used to restore the function of a deficient tibialis posterior tendon in stage II adult acquired flatfoot deformity (AAFD). Either transfer causes some loss in toe flexion force, although the decision to tenodese the cut tendon to restore associated function remains controversial. This stud...
