Double Interphalangeal Joint Dislocation of the Finger in Adolescent Athletes: A Review of Two Cases and the Relevant Literature

“…Firstly, an axial compression force to the tip of the finger results in an excessive hyperextension at the DIP joint, 3 Case Reports in Orthopedics causing injury of the volar articular capsule and allowing dorsal dislocation of the DIP joint. Subsequently, this force was transmitted to the middle phalanx, which resulted in similar injury of the volar articular capsule of the PIP joint causing a second dorsal dislocation at the proximal joint [3,8]. Thus, it is obvious that it is not a "simultaneous" dislocation, but two separate actions that occur in a quick succession and result to this double dislocation of both distal and proximal joints.…”

Simultaneous Dorsal Dislocation of the Proximal and Distal Interphalangeal Joints in the Middle Finger: A Case Report

“…It has been stated that the right hand is the most commonly affected. The finger most often injured was the little finger followed by the ring finger, middle finger and the index finger (4).…”

“…in 1874(3). The most prevalent cause of injury in the literature was a sport accident, usually in athletes during ball games, such as volleyball and baseball(3,4).Copyright © 2017, Shafa Orthopedic Journal.

Simultaneous double of both interphalangeal joints dislocation of same finger in a volleyball player: A case report

“…Most commonly etiologic reason is sport injuries in the literature. [1,4] The probably reason is more vulnerable to trauma and owing to weakness adjacent to surrounding ligament structure in both fourth and fifth finger [1]. The other reason is that proximal anatomical morphology of finger with shallow articular surface itself leads to laxity on extension [5,6].…”

“…After the reduction, in order to avoid any instability of joint, hand and finger should not to be immobilization in the functional position. In the standing of finger position should choice intrinsic plus position leading at 80-90 degree of flexion in the metacarpophalangeal joint 0-15 degree of flexion interphalangeal joint [1,4,8]. Treatment options include immobilization, buddy-strapping, dorsal-blocking splints and figure-of-eight splints for 2-4 weeks [1,6] .…”
