Abstract:

A case of bilateral insertion of flexor pollicis longus to the proximal as well as the distal phalanges is reported. Initially, this case was diagnosed as congenital absence of the flexor pollicis longus, but surgery revealed an intact tendon, with the abnormality only present in the site of insertion. A survey of the literature on congenital abnormalities of flexor pollicis longus failed to reveal any reports of similar abnormalities.

Abstract:

We report a case of flexor pollicis longus tendon rupture after arthrodesis of the trapeziometacarpal joint with headless screws using the criss-cross technique. Although flexor pollicis longus tendon rupture is a conceivable complication after the trapeziometacarpal joint arthrodesis, very few cases have rarely been reported in the literature. We should remind that screws inserted into the trapezium could lead to a rupture of the flexor pollicis longus tendon.

Abstract:

Anterior interosseous nerve palsy is rare. Isolated neuropraxia of its branch to the flexor pollicis longus is even rarer. We present a case of a 24-year-old man who presented with weakness of his left thumb flexion after sustaining closed fracture of the proximal third of his left radius. On exploration, the anterior interosseous nerve and its branches was found to be intact as was the flexor pollicis longus. Electrophysiological studies demonstrated acute left anterior interosseous nerve neuropathy. Electromyography showed discrete motor unit at the flexor pollicis longus. Two months later t

Surgical exploration 5 weeks after onset showed flexor pollicis longus tendon to be intact; anterior interosseous nerve decompression was done with no abnormalities found.

A case is presented of acute loss of function of flexor pollicis longus and profundus tendon to the index finger. Although the aetiology was obscure, the acute onset suggested a mechanical cause rather than a nerve compression disorder such as anterior interosseous nerve palsy. X-rays showed an ununited scaphoid fracture related to an injury many years previously. Surgical exploration revealed attritional rupture of flexor pollicis longus and partial division of profundus tendon to index finger by a spicule of ununited scaphoid which had eroded through the volar capsule.

Incidence of auxiliary head of the flexor pollicis longus muscle has been described repeatedly. Accessory head has been noted arising from the lateral or more rarely from the medial border of the coronoid process of the ulna. During routine dissection, we found a rare case of an additional slip of tendinous origin of flexor pollicis longus muscle from the medial epicondyle of the humerus. However, such anomaly was not found on the left side. The embryological source and clinical impact of the current incident are discussed.

In anterior interosseus nerve syndrome, reconstruction of the paralyzed flexor pollicis longus is occasionally required. Traditionally, the brachioradialis has been used as a motor, but we utilised the palmaris longus, which is expendable.

All patients regained a full range of thumb interphalangeal joint motion and an average 90% of the pinch strength.

Two similar cases in Japanese have been described. Abnormal insertion of a portion of the flexor pollicis longus must be included in the differential diagnosis of inadequate thumb flexion.

Abstract:

With C7-T1 brachial plexus injuries, finger motion is absent while shoulder, elbow and wrist function are largely preserved. Previously, we have reconstructed finger flexion by transferring the brachialis muscle to the flexor digitorum profundus and flexor pollicis longus; and we have restored extension of thumb and finger by transferring the motor nerve to the supinator to the posterior interosseous nerve, which is only feasible in fresh injuries. We describe the transfer of the supinator muscle to the extensor pollicis brevis to reanimate thumb extension in patients with long standing C7-T1

Abstract:

We report a case of rupture of the flexor pollicis longus tendon due to attrition by the ulnar sesamoid bone of the metacarpophalangeal joint of the thumb secondary to osteoarthritic changes of this bone.

Abstract:

We reviewed the incidence and treatment of flexor carpi radialis tendinitis in 77 patients (81 thumbs) who had trapeziectomy and abductor pollicis longus suspensionplasty for thumb carpometacarpal joint arthritis. Eighteen patients, 20 wrists (25%) had flexor carpi radialis tendinitis. The onset was 2–10 months (mean 4.7) after surgery. Two cases had preceding trauma. Eight cases (40%) responded to splinting and steroid injection. Ten patients, 12 wrists (60%) underwent surgery after failing non-operative treatment. Eleven wrists had frayed or partially torn flexor carpi radialis tendon and on

Abstract:

We report a rare case of absence of the flexor pollicis longus in a hypoplastic right thumb, without hypoplasia of the thenar muscles in an 11-year-old girl, who was treated by transfer of flexor digitorum superficialis of the ring finger to the thumb to achieve active flexion at the interphalangeal joint of the thumb.

Abstract:

Two cases of irreducible dorsal dislocation of the metacarpopbalangeal joint of the thumb are reported. In both cases, there was interposition of the tendon of flexor pollicis longus. Open reduction was required to achieve successful reduction.
