Extensor tendon lacerations occur when an object penetrates the tissues of the hand and severs the tendons on the back of the hand or fingers. This damage may be intentional or accidental, and often involves broken glass, jagged metal, or sharp tools. Mallet Finger refers to a drooping end-joint of a finger.
An extensor tendon injury is damage to the tissues on the back of the hand and fingers. It can make it hard for you to extend your wrist, open your hand, or straighten your fingers. The inability to perform these functions can severely limit hand and upper extremity function.
Surgical repair of a lacerated or torn extensor tendon is called extensor tendon repair. An extensor tendon repair surgery can be performed under either regional or general anesthesia.
A central slip is a section of an extensor tendon which straightens the middle joint of your finger. Recovery. Your damaged tendon has been repaired. It will take about 12 weeks for it to heal fully. During this time, there is a risk that the tendon could rupture (break) and your fingers could become stiff.
The extensor tendons in your feet are called the extensor hallucis longus, extensor hallucis brevis, extensor digitorum longus, and tibialis anterior. You're at risk for this condition if you have a high instep.
The common extensor tendon is a tough band of fibrous connective tissue that attaches to the lateral epicondyle of the humerus (long bone in the upper arm) at the elbow. Rupture or tear of the common extensor tendon is the most common acute tendon injury of the elbow.
The extensor tendon repair code is 25270—Repair, tendon or muscle, extensor, forearm and/or wrist; primary, single, each tendon or muscle.
Extensor tendons are just under the skin, directly on the bone, on the back of the hands and fingers. Because of their location, they can be easily injured even by a minor cut. Jamming a finger may cause these thin tendons to rip apart from their attachment to bone.
Place a single suture into the cut end core of the tendon, entering about one third of the diameter of the tendon. Pass the needle diagonally through the tendon, exiting on the ulnar side. Wrap the suture around the tendon, and reenter on the dorsal ulnar side of the tendon.
The index and small finger have two tendons, the long and ring fingers only have one extensor tendon, and the thumb has two extensors, but they attach at different joints.
The dorsal hood or extensor hood is a retinacular system that stabilizes the extensor tendon at the dorsal aspect of the metacarpophalangeal joint (MCP) aiding to keep the tendon in place during flexion and extension. It is formed by three retinacular structures: the sagittal, oblique, and transverse bands.
What is the central slip? There are several tendons in your finger that work together to straighten the finger. These tendons run along the side and the top of the finger. The tendon on the top of the finger attaches to the middle bone and is known as the central slip.
The tendon may take four to eight weeks, or longer in some patients, to heal completely. Removing the splint early may result in drooping of the fingertip, which may then require additional splinting. Your physician will instruct you to remove the splint at the proper time.
Common signs and symptoms of extensor tendon and mallet finger injuries include:Inability to straighten the fingers or extend the wrist.Pain and swelling in fingertip.Recent trauma or laceration to the hand.Drooping of the end joint of the finger.
The tendon may take eight to twelve weeks to heal completely. Longer periods of splinting are sometimes needed. Your doctor will apply the splint in the correct place and give you directions on how long to wear it. Other treatment for an extensor tendon injury may include stitches (for cuts in the tendon).
In some cases, damage to the extensor tendons can be treated without the need for surgery, using a rigid support called a splint that's worn around the hand.
