| Popis: | Traumatic avulsion of flexor digitorum profundus (jersey finger) is an uncommon injury. Our study aimed to describe functional outcomes of jersey fingers after surgical treatment. From January 2004 to 2014, we performed surgery on 32 patients who had jersey finger. Twenty-six of these patients were male and 6 were female with a mean age of 37.2years (range 16-68). Of the 32 cases, 11 were sports injuries, 16 presented on the ring finger and 13 on the little finger. Using the Leddy and Packer and Smith classifications, 16 of the injuries were type I, 4 were type II, 5 were type III, 7 were type IV. The mean time between injury and surgery was 6.8days (range: 0-32). The surgical techniques used were anchor, pull-out, or an association of both these techniques. Prior to the patient discharge, functional outcomes were evaluated. Twenty-nine patients were evaluated in total and three patients were lost. Of the 29, the average time between surgery and discharge was 36.6months ranging from 4.5 to 118months. According to the Buck-Gramcko classification, six patients had an excellent result, six had a good result, seven had a satisfactory result and ten a poor result. The mean Quick DASH score immediately to prior discharge was 5.66 (range: 0-56.82). Twelve complications were reported on nine patients. No infections were reported. Rapid diagnosis and rapid surgical treatment led to restoration of full range motion. |
