Article in several languages: English | español
Abstract
Two Cases Of Boutonnière Deformity After Trauma Are Presented In Patients Without Rheumatic Disease. One Of Them Suffered An Assault and the other a high-energy accident. Both cases were misdiagnosed. The first case presented an injury of the dorsoradial capsule of the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint and the second case presented an injury of the adductor pollicis (AP) which is an unusual finding regarding this kind of deformity. The surgical treatment failed up to two times in the first case hile in the second case it failed once.
