WHAT IS MALLET FINGER?
Mallet finger is also known as hammer finger is an injury of the extensor tendon and resulting in difficulty to move the tip of the finger. This generally causes bruising and pain at the backside of the joint. This can result from the rupturing of the extensor tendon and a small fragment of bone connected to the avulsed tendon. If it is left untreated then it might cause swan neck deformity from DIP joint flexion and PIP joint hyperextension. Most of the time mallet fingers can be treated without any surgery but most of the time people with acute or chronic mallet disease are recommended to have surgery due to failed treatment. Terminal extensor tendon injuries are very common in mallet finger injuries and almost 5.6 percent of the injuries are of the wrist as well as hand.
