    Journal: J Hand Surg Br; 2005 Dec; 30(6):621-3. PubMed ID: 16105714.
    Abstract:
    Closed flexor tendon pulley ruptures are relatively rare injuries. All previously reported cases have been in the long finger pulleys. To our knowledge, there has not been a case of closed thumb flexor tendon pulley rupture reported in the literature. This paper presents two cases of this pathology and discusses appropriate treatment of it.
