No secondary deformities or advanced chondral wear was evident, and further magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) confirmed the proximal one-fifth scaphoid nonunion without evidence of trabecular bridging or proximal pole necrosis. Among them, 21% of the cases had varying degrees of skin irritation on the back of the calcaneus. The main function of the Extensor Digitorum Brevis Muscle is to control the movement of the toes. Physical examination showed obvious swelling and tenderness of the left heel. Bookshelf Traumatic muscle hernias are either direct following an open injury to the leg, or indirect following a repeated blunt trauma to a contracted muscle causing . Conversely, there is lack of literature concerning the use of US and MR in the assessment of extensor tendon healing after a conservative treatment or surgical repair; furthermore, the interpretation of US images requires knowledge of the mechanism of injury, surgical technique, and the physiopathology tendon healing that includes tendon thinning, tendon fluid collections, persistent hypervascularity, tendon calcifications, and adhesions.59. So far, there is no widely accepted surgical method to treat avulsion fractures of the calcaneal tuberosity. National Library of Medicine In this case report, we describe the successful treatment of a young patient with persistently symptomatic anomalous extensor tendon with surgical excision and propose an algorithm for management after failure of conservative measures. The PubMed wordmark and PubMed logo are registered trademarks of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The transverse retinacular ligaments connect the lateral bands to the volar plate at the proximal interphalangeal joint and prevent dorsal luxation. Agni et al15 applied the hook plate to the avulsion fracture of the calcaneal tuberosity and found that it can also be firmly fixed. These injuries require more complex techniques for tendon reconstruction, soft tissue coverage, skeletal repair, and eventual treatment of concomitant vascular and nerve injuries. Hand and wrist sonography. The failure of internal fixation is clearly related to bone quality.7,17 Athavale et al18 proved that the posterior tuberosity of the calcaneus is one of the sites with good bone quality and mechanical properties. Interesting information The extensor digitorum brevis can act as a trigger point for foot pain, although this may overlap with pain from the tibialis anterior and peroneus terius. Clinically Oriented Anatomy. The mini-locking steel plate is small in size and will not compress the skin of the heel. Limitation of tendon excursion due to adhesions at the fracture site or after tendon repair may cause reduction in mobility of adjacent tendons with a so-called quadriga effect.16 Deformities of the DRUJ or ulnar head position may alter the gliding extensor mechanism and affect specifically the EDM and EDC tendons.17 On this regard, it has been shown that the gliding resistance of EDM tendon is significantly higher than that of EDC tendon. In acute avulsion fractures, there is usually a clear preceding traumatic incident. 1. 1). Similar management can be applied at the thumb, with a 30 or 40 core suture and 50 dorsal cross-stitch. Magnetic resonance imaging findings of chronic lateral ankle instability. Strauch R J. Philadelphia, PA: Elsevier Churchill Livingstone; 2011. Accessibility Simple decompression of the extensor retinaculum may be reasonable if the EDBM tissue is not inflamed or hypertrophic. Injury classification into anatomical zones and the evaluation of the characteristics of the lesions are considered key points to select the appropriate treatment for ETI. In case of trauma, X-rays may rule out or confirm bone injuries associated with ETI; furthermore they may reveal pathologic conditions such as malunion of wrist and hand fractures and/or RA responsible for chronic ETI. Partial tendon ruptures are characterized by hypoechoic-anechoic image of the tendon or by tendon swelling and sheath effusion. Epub 2014 Oct 16. As such, EDBM is often confused with ganglion cysts or soft tissue tumors when it becomes clinically relevant.1,3 The relationship between clinical symptoms and EDBM has mostly been attributed to reduction or elimination of pain after excision. Another Cochrane revision performed by Handoll and Vaghela66 examined the evidence for the relative effectiveness of different treatment method for mallet finger injuries. Origin. However, our research is not fully free from limitations. The screws on both sides were fixed at 180 degrees. FOIA Karabay N. US findings in traumatic wrist and hand injuries. Proximal extensor tendon repair is facilitated by the large thickness of tendons that may accommodate a core suture reinforced by dorsal cross stitches. The fourth compartment contains the EDC and extensor indicis proprius, which reach the finger extensor apparatus as the EDM is situated in the fifth compartment over the distal radial-ulnar joint. This approach will save a patient, who may undergo only a debridement, a return trip to the operating room if symptoms persist. If these measures do not improve wrist pain, a MRI may be obtained. In this case the deficit of the central slip action and the subsequent volar subluxation of the lateral bands may induce a boutonniere deformity several weeks after trauma. MR imaging of tendon lesions of the hand and wrist. Biomechanical studies performed by Newport et al demonstrated that Kleinert and modified Kessler techniques with a 4-0 polypropylene (Prolene) were the strongest core suture methods of extensor tendon repair in zone 4 and 6 (Fig. 2 and 3). Squires et al9 also believed that the effect of non-surgical treatment for avulsion fracture of the calcaneal tuberosity was unsatisfactory and open reduction and internal fixation was recommended. 38 Additionally, a dynamic US evaluation could detect specific tendon injuries such as extensor tendon instability due to sagittal band injuries of the extensor cuff at metacarpophalangeal joint.39 Overall, both US and MR techniques may be helpful in the diagnosis of ETI, not only for visualization of complete lesions but also for the detection of asymptomatic partial tendon tears.33 Superficial peroneal nerve (SPN) 1,3 Avulsion fracture of the lateral ankle ligament complex in severe inversion injury: incidence and clinical outcome. Anderson MW, Benedetti P, Walter J, Steinberg DR, Oxford University Press is a department of the University of Oxford. doi: 10.1016/j.math.2012.03.014. Received 2020 Nov 12; Accepted 2021 Feb 4. Before Further clinical and biomechanical investigations would be advisable to clarify this complex issue. Despite his fracture, he demonstrated excellent range of motion, normal neurovascular examination, and otherwise, nonfocal findings. Both conservative and surgical management can be indicated in ETI, depending on the anatomical zone and on the characteristics of the injuries. Long-term results of extensor tendon repair. The https:// ensures that you are connecting to the Gardner et al10 reported 139 cases of posterior calcaneal tubercle fractures. The screws should be long enough to lock and fix the double cortex. Isolated calcaneofibular ligament injury: a report of two cases. Squires et al9 and Levi13 recommended the use of steel wire and tension bands for fixation. We aim to provide a simple, safe, and strong internal fixation technique for avulsion fractures of the calcaneal tuberosity as one of the treatment options. During the operation, we put the steel plate as close as possible to the cortical bone of the calcaneal tuberosity, and pre-bend the two ends of the steel plate to form a U-like structure that wraps the fractured piece of the posterior tuberosity of the calcaneus. Extends toes. In particular the posterior interosseous nerve, because of its deep position in the muscle substance, is challenging to find and repair. However, screw fixation should be avoided because the mechanical strength of the screw was inadequate and the tail easily irritated the Achilles tendon. and transmitted securely. The opinions or assertions contained herein are the private views of the authors and are not to be construed as official or reflecting the views of the Department of Defense or the U.S. Government. The safe range of movement of the proximal interphalangeal joint from which the rehabilitative protocol can start is determined intraoperatively assessing the tension on the site of repair.14 When a proximal phalangeal fracture is concomitant, a solid synthesis is recommended to facilitate early motion program.9, Wounds over the metacarpophalangeal joint due to punch directed on the teeth are frequently characterized by partial laceration of the tendinous apparatus and can be contaminated by saliva.14 Because of the high risk of infection, the correct management should involve X-ray to exclude fractures or foreign bodies, then irrigation, exploration, and antibiotic prophylaxis. Normally when trauma occurs with the finger extended, the tendon damage corresponds to the level of injury, while tendinous retractions can be observed in case of fist trauma. doi: 10. . As a library, NLM provides access to scientific literature. At the same time, it is the attachment point of the Achilles tendon. Single or multiple K wires, lag screws, plates and screws, or external fixation may be used according to the type of fracture and the characteristics of hand injury. However, the authors recommend that surgeons err on the side of excising the accessory EDBM. Zone 2. . Elson R A. Rupture of the central slip of the extensor hood of the finger. Correspondence: Ding Xu Email xuding831129@126.com. Closed treatment of non rheumatoid extensor tendon dislocations at the metacarpophalangeal joint. Alternatively, with primary extensor function, excision may be considered to avoid secondary causes of wrist pain, as in the current case. Subacute and chronic avulsion injuries can be due to delayed presentation of an acute injury or secondary to repetitive use / overuse injuries 4 . The lateral branch exits about the anterior TT and innervates the extensor digitorum brevis (EDB) and extensor hallucis brevis (EHB) muscles. Extensor Digitorum & Hallucis Brevis. Evaluation of a tendon injury requires a detailed knowledge of the anatomy of the extensor apparatus, as well as the functional characteristics of each segment. MeSH Early fracture reduction can relieve the pressure on the skin; restore local blood supply; reduce the incidence of complications, such as soft tissue necrosis; and restore the function of the calf triceps as soon as possible. 7 Because of this operative approach, surgical outcomes have significantly improved over the time in most cases.6 Unable to load your collection due to an error, Unable to load your delegates due to an error.

Thereafter, the anomalous muscle belly was evaluated and coursed directly in the vicinity of surgical fixation. The full terms of this license are available at. Zone 5. Federal government websites often end in .gov or .mil. In a cadaveric study the modified Becker suture showed one cross-stitch superior mechanical properties for loads compared with the two and three cross-stitch techniques.43 Recently Lee et al compared the resistance of the modified Bunnell and Becker suture technique with a running interlocked suture, combining a running and an interlocking mattress extensor tendon suture4 (Fig. Due to the traction of the Achilles tendon and osteoporosis, a large number of reports have shown that a series of complications such as skin flap necrosis and failure of internal fixation after surgery often cause nonunion or malunion of calcaneal tuberosity fractures. Check for errors and try again. EDBM often presents as a mass on the dorsum of the hand. The clinical algorithm in this case relied on the presence of normal extensors, primarily the EDC. Epub 2007 Mar 22. 14 (Fig. The former tendon with its sheath contributes to the dynamic stability of the wrist acting to the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) as part of the triangular fibro cartilage complex (TFCC).15 Any lesions of additional structures of extensor tendon apparatus may lead to specific dysfunction, including extensor tendon instability and finger deformity. The most commonly reported origins are the capsule of the radiocarpal joint and the carpal bones,1,3 whereas other attachments at the distal radius, metacarpals, and ulna are described. (B) Postoperative axial X-ray of the case, the fractured piece was reliably fixed by the micro locking plate. Cleveland Clinic is a non-profit academic medical center. The steel plate we use is a micro-locking steel plate (Weigao, Shandong, China), which is small in size. This site needs JavaScript to work properly. Even if it is tightly fixed under the skin, it will not cause obvious compression on the skin. Carty M J, Blazar P E. Complex flexor and extensor tendon injuries. Epub 2008 Jun 19. [Fractures of the anterior process of the calcaneus-frequently overlooked injuries following ankle sprains]. Extensor Tendon Injuries are traumatic injuries to the extensor tendons that can be caused by laceration, trauma, or overuse. Proximally to the metacarpophalangeal joint, lesions of the tendons can be masked by an intact junctura if the damage occurs distally to this structure. Bilateral extensor digitorum brevis manus. Anomalous muscle belly identified during dorsal approach to scaphoid. There is a bone flake near the anterolateral side of the calcaneum along with local soft tissue swelling. The muscular components can be divided into deep and superficial groups of layer. He was regularly reviewed in the outpatient clinic and underwent imaging examinations (Figure 4). The typical mechanism that causes the rupture of the terminal part of the extensor apparatus derives from a forced flexion of the joint during active extension.

Bethesda, MD 20894, Web Policies Clavero J A, Alomar X, Monill J M. et al. A running suture technique can be chosen in such conditions (Fig. [2][3] There are also some young patients, who are often athletes that are affected by this type of fracture. Tendinous injuries to zone 2 are often subsequent to open wounds. [1] Due to their superficial location and being adjacent to the bones, extensor tendons in the hand are more prone to injury than the flexors. Initial treatment is conservative, with surgical options available for refractory injuries or entrapment caused by anatomic abnormality. Lesions in zone 4 that involve less than 50% of the tendon width can be treated conservatively or repaired surgically according to surgeon's preference. In brief: Avulsion fractures of the anterior cal-caneal process involving the extensor digitorum brevis do not occur often. 13 The intrinsic system includes three palmar and four dorsal interossei and four lumbrical muscles. Similar conclusions were reported by Bencardino.34 Swen et al demonstrated that in patients with RA, US has a better diagnostic value than MR in detecting partial extensor tendon tears and that this technique could be useful in surgical decision making about tenosinoviectomy.35 Furthermore, US has been successfully used in the diagnosis of mallet finger and in cadaveric study for the detection of central slip lesion at proximal interphalangeal joint.36 Rayan and Murray defined three types of injuries, in which type 1 is a simple contusion, type 2 involves tendon subluxation with still contact with the dorsal aspect of the metacarpal head, and type 3 shows a dislocation of the tendon between the metacarpal heads.22 Clinically type 2 lesions are characterized by snapping of the tendon during flexion-extension movements of the metacarpophalangeal joint, whereas type 3 pattern shows weakness in extension of the finger from a full-flexion position and a ulnar deviation of the involved finger.

Axial loading of the foot following a fall from a height is the most common mechanism for severe calcaneal fractures. Epub 2021 Feb 3. The case had an AOFAS score of 80 12 months after surgery. Two cases underwent free flap transplantation, and one case underwent amputation. If a tendon becomes inflamed painful and swollen the condition is called tendonitis. After perfecting the examination (routine blood test, coagulation function, electrocardiogram and lung CT) and eliminating the contraindications for surgery, we performed surgery on the patient. At the time the case was submitted for publication Maulik S Patel had no recorded disclosures. It associated with local subcutaneous edema.

We changed the dressing of the patients incision at an interval of every 3 days. The pulsation of the left dorsal artery was reachable without any significant weakening. Westerheide E, Failla J M, van Holsbeeck M, Ceulemans R. Ultrasound visualization of central slip injuries of the finger extensor mechanism. The https:// ensures that you are connecting to the This surgical technique has three main advantages: There are many types of surgical incisions for avulsion fractures of the calcaneal tuberosity, usually including posteromedial incision, posterolateral incision, posterior midline longitudinal incision and L-shaped incision. Moreover, these small arteries gradually decrease with age.12 At the same time, coupled with the compression of the displaced fractures on the skin, the soft tissues in this area are prone to necrosis. Then, examination of each single finger with and without resistance should be done, to exclude the action of the juncturae tendinum that could mask the real entity of the damage.

Become a Gold Supporter and see no third-party ads. 2007 Jul;35(7):1144-52. doi: 10.1177/0363546507299531. The https:// ensures that you are connecting to the A Cochrane revision performed by Chalmer et al observed that there is insufficient evidence from trial testing about the duration and the extent of immobilization of proximal interphalangeal joint after hyperextension trauma.65 Splintage with extended distal interphalangeal joint for 8 weeks is the treatment commonly suggested for acute type 1 mallet finger injuries. These muscles generally originate on or near the lateral epicondyle and insert on the distal forearm or in the hand. First, we reduced the fracture of the calcaneal tuberosity under direct vision and temporarily fixed it with multiple Kirschner wires. An official website of the United States government. This injury can easily be overlooked and misdiagnosed as a sprained ankle. Summary. and transmitted securely. Therefore, the decision was made to excise the EDBM in an effort to reduce persistent painful symptoms. Due to the traction of the Achilles tendon, the tongue-shaped fracture was displaced proximally, which increased the tension of the skin at the heel. Clipboard, Search History, and several other advanced features are temporarily unavailable. Despite recent research findings, a lack of evidence-based knowledge is still observed in surgical treatment and postoperative management of ETI. However, hernia can also occur in other extremity muscles like Extensor digitorum longus, peroneus longus and peroneus brevis . 195219. For example, lateral epicondylitis affects 1-5% of the general population. A rigid fixation giving good stability to the fracture was achieved. It furthers the University's objective of excellence in research, scholarship, and education by publishing worldwide, This PDF is available to Subscribers Only. Frequently these lesions are incomplete, because the extensor apparatus is large and flat, wrapping around the phalanx. Particularly, US highlights some lesions that may require specific splinting to prevent extensor tendon instability at metacarpophalangeal joint, boutonniere, and mallet deformities. 2021 Oct;43(10):1619-1622. doi: 10.1007/s00276-021-02770-1. Chronic ruptures may occur in patients with inflammatory arthritis such as RA or as posttraumatic complication. INTRODUCTION Calcaneal fractures are relatively uncommon, comprising 1 to 2 percent of all fractures, but important because they can lead to long-term disability. Extensor tendon apparatus. Conservative measures may include primarily a period of immobilization and anti-inflammatory medications, followed by occupational therapy. Injury classification into anatomical zones and the evaluation of the characteristics of the lesions are considered key points to select the appropriate treatment for ETI. [2] It also assists extensor hallucis longus and brevis in 1st toe metatarsophalangeal extension. Sunagawa T, Ishida O, Ishiburo M, Suzuki O, Yasunaga Y, Ochi M.

Unauthorized use of these marks is strictly prohibited. Post-traumatic left foot pain for the last 2 days. Physical examinational findings may include discomfort with maximal stretch to affected finger, most typically index or middle, or resisted extension of that digit. 2). However, the absolute indications for either surgical management remain unclear, particularly with other concomitant wrist pathology or symptomatic pain. [1][2] Conservative treatment is recommended in most cases; however, surgical intervention occasionally may be necessary to treat large avulsed fragments or malunions. Injuries over the dorsal aspect of the hand have often favorable prognosis for many reasons: associated joint injuries are uncommon, the great tendon excursion does not lead to joint motion limitation after repair, the increased subcutaneous tissue reduces the risk of adhesions, the width of the tendon allows easy 30 core sutures with or without 50 cross-stitches, and dynamic splinting is manageable.14 However, diagnosis is not always immediate because of the presence of the juncturae tendinum. Finger abduction as a novel function of the extensor digitorum brevis manus muscle. Dorsal Wrist Ganglion Associated with Extensor Digitorum Brevis Manus: Case Report and Review of the Literature. Anatomical variations regarding extensor tendons and juncturae have been well described in the literature and their knowledge may be very important during reconstructive and transfer procedures.12 Surgical Management of Extensor Digitorum Brevis Manus Anomaly with a Dorsal Ganglion Cyst. There is no effusion in the anterior recess of the ankle joint. Orthopedics. (C) Axial X-ray of the calcaneus after the first operation, and the screw can be fixed in position. Kutsumi K, Amadio P C, Zhao C, Zobitz M E, An K N. Gliding resistance of the extensor pollicis brevis tendon and abductor pollicis longus tendon within the first dorsal compartment in fixed wrist positions.

Diagnosis is made clinically by physical examination and performing various provocative tests depending on the location of the injury. At the thumb, the intrinsic system that contributes to thumb extension is constituted by the abductor pollicis brevis, flexor pollicis brevis, and adductor pollicis, via attachments to the extrinsic extensor apparatus. (D) Axial X-ray one year after surgery, the fracture has reached bone union. One month later, the patient suddenly felt severe pain in the left heel during ankle joint function training and was unable to move. 51 A core single or double 40 suture placed on the thicker area of the lateral bands with a 50 dorsal cross-stitch is recommended, followed by an early motion program to prevent adhesions. Epub 2012 May 10. There is no dislocation or bone lesion. Catalano L W III, Gupta S, Ragland R III, Glickel S Z, Johnson C, Barron O A. Beavis et al21 divided the avulsion fractures of the calcaneal tuberosity into three categories: type I is a sleeve-shaped fracture, a small avulsion of cortical bone at the calcaneal tuberosity; type II is a beak fractures, an oblique fracture line running posterior from just behind Bohlers angle, but the Achilles tendon is still connected to the fracture; and type III is an avulsion fracture of the Achilles tendon from the middle third of the posterior tuberosity. Radiographs may play a useful role in the investigation of ETI. Mallet thumb can be managed following the same criteria for long fingers in case of the injuries located in zone 1. The extensor digitorum brevis manus. Clayton R AE, Court-Brown C M. The epidemiology of musculoskeletal tendinous and ligamentous injuries. The first management of an acute lesion diagnosed within 3 weeks from the trauma also is conservative, using an extension metacarpophalangeal splint and free interphalangeal joints for 4 to 6 weeks. Second, we made a soft tissue channel that clinged to the front of the Achilles tendon to place a pre-curved U-shaped micro locking plate (Weigao, Shandong, China) for fixing the calcaneal tuberosity to the calcaneus. When discussing the mechanism of injury, he describes an axial load applied to his extended wrist during midseason blocking drills. Newport M L, Pollack G R, Williams C D. Biomechanical characteristics of suture techniques in extensor zone IV. Biomechanical evaluation of a locking and nonlocking reconstruction plate in an osteoporotic calcaneal fracture model, Avulsion fracture of the calcaneal tuberosity: a case report and literature review, Avulsion fracture of the calcaneal tuberosity: classification and its characteristics, http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/. It associated with local subcutaneous edema. Accessibility Extensors tendons-acute injuries; pp. The anatomical characteristic of tendon in the site of injury should be considered to plan the appropriate method and configuration of suture.42 The thickness of the tendon may allow a core suture at the wrist and at the dorsum of the hand, but distal to the metacarpophalangeal joint the tendons become narrow and this suture may be difficult to perform. In reality, it is very difficult for us to reduce the displaced avulsion fracture of the calcaneal tuberosity in the closed state, and multiple reduction will cause repeated damage to local soft tissues and increase the probability of skin necrosis. First of all, our research was only a preliminary technical report. government site. 2013 Feb;18(1):e1-7. 3. Zone 4. A tendon is a type of body tissue that connects muscle to bone. Please enable it to take advantage of the complete set of features! 8600 Rockville Pike Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. Direct repair can be performed using several suture techniques, with supplemental K-wire stabilization in extension of the distal interphalangeal joint. 2008 Dec;3(4):320-3. doi: 10.1007/s11552-008-9111-5. This group includes closed tendinous and small avulsion fractures that characterize the mallet thumb, similar to that observed in long fingers. 37 As a library, NLM provides access to scientific literature. The sagittal bands connect the extrinsic extensor tendons to the volar plate at the metacarpophalangeal joint to centralize the extensor tendon over the midline and prevent the hyperextension of the joint. K wires do not provide immediate stabilization and may not allow early mobilization; external fixation is indicated in case of open fractures or extensive soft tissue injuries leaving the possibility of the control of wound healing and the progression of soft tissue repair.
