description | Injuries of flexor digitorum profundus tendons in children are rare (Nietosvaara at all.), certainly in newborns. In this case report, we discuss the presentation, treatment and outcome of a profundus tendon injury of the fifth finger of a ten days old baby. The tendon injury in this case was caused by a knife cut, unrelated to cesarean sectio. To our knowledge, this is the first report about a flexor digitorum profundus injury and repair in a newborn of this age. [Med-Science 2015; 4(4.000): 2909-13] |
