172
What is the capsular pattern of the IP joints?
flexion=extension
173
What is the function of the flexor mechanism?
function to prevent bowstringing of the tendons with contraction of finger flexors
174
Trigger finger occurs secondary to __________.
tenosynovitis
175
What is the structure of the extensor mechanism?
- tendon of extensor digitorum attaches to dorsal side of proximal phalanx - remaining tendon flattens into a central band - central band divides into 2 lateral bands before crossing the PIP joint - bands reconverge distally
