Abstract

Chronic injuries of the extensor apparatus of the fingers are the product of an initial injury that was not treated or was treated inadequately. These injuries require adequate and thorough management to achieve a good functional result. We present the case of a 26-year-old patient with a traumatic injury to the extensor apparatus of the third finger due to a traffic accident that occurred 8 months before. It required an intraoperative approach from Verdan zones I to V, and reconstruction with a palmaris longus (PL) autograft. The patient obtained an excellent functional result at 12 weeks, which persisted up to 9 months of follow-up.
