Closed Avulsion of Both Flexor Tendons of the Ring FingerFrom the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Hong Kong, Queen Mary Hospital, Hong Kong Correspondence: Dr K. M. C. Cheung, FRCS, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Queen Mary Hospital, Pokfulam Road, Hong Kong. Closed avulsion of both flexor digitorum profundus and superficialis from the same finger is rare. Only ten cases have been described in the literature. The majority were treated with a two stage reconstruction of the flexor digitorum profundus. We describe a case in which primary repair of both tendons was performed.
