Abstract: (14 Views)
Background: A mallet finger and a fracture or dislocation of the proximal interphalangeal joint (PIPJ) on the same finger are rare injuries, usually caused by direct axial trauma.
Case Presentation: In this report, we present two cases (a 27-year-old man and a 25-year-old woman) of PIPJ fracture/dislocation associated with a mallet finger. PIPJ dislocation/fracture was managed in one patient with open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) through the Shotgun approach and another with extension block pinning.
Conclusion Mallet finger fracture was managed in both patients with pinning. The results and outcomes of surgery were good in both patients.
