Popis: We describe a case of attrition rupture of flexor digitorum profundus tendon of the right little finger in a 64-year-old lady caused by a prominent hook of hamate. The tendon was reconstructed primarily by palmaris longus tendon graft and was complicated by tendon graft twisting by scar tissue, resulting in the inability to fully extend the finger.
