Abstract :
Flexor tendon injury of the finger may be open or closed, but it is not as common as extensor tendon injuries. Pathogenesis is associated with many factors. Sports injuries are also among those causes. Applied treatment approach is primary repair or pull-out technique. In this paper, we discussed the case in the light of the literature, that we performed repair via pull out technique for flexor digitorum profundus tendon avulsion in an amateur sportsman.
