Popis: We present a case of an irreducible dorsal distal interphalangeal joint dislocation caused by dislocation of the flexor digitorum profundus tendon. Although these types of injuries are rare, through a search of the literature, we conclude that a high degree of suspicion must be maintained in irreducible dislocations for this type of injury. An early open approach for diagnosis and treatment is recommended.
