Two Cases Of Boutonnière Deformity After Trauma Are Presented In Patients Without
Rheumatic Disease. One Of Them Suffered An Assault and the other a high-energy accident.
Both cases were misdiagnosed. The first case presented an injury of the dorsoradial
capsule of the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint and the second case presented an injury
of the adductor pollicis (AP) which is an unusual finding regarding this kind of deformity.
The surgical treatment failed up to two times in the first case hile in the second
case it failed once.
