  • Title: Closed rupture of both flexor digitorum profundus and superficialis tendons of the small finger in zone II: case report.
    Author: Naohito H, Masato A, Rui A, Daisuke H, Yusuke Y, Koichi I.
    Journal: J Hand Surg Am; 2011 Jan; 36(1):121-4. PubMed ID: 21146330.
    Abstract:
    We report a rare case of closed rupture of both flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) and flexor digitorum superficialis tendons in zone II in the small finger. We performed delayed, primary end-to-end suture of the FDP and excision of the flexor digitorum superficialis, because myostatic contracture of the FDP tendon was not severe and the FDP tendon remnants were not frayed.
