Muscles of the Forearm that Move the Hand and Fingers

2.3K
The muscles of the forearm that move the wrist, hand, and digits are numerous and diverse. They can be classified into two groups based on their location and function — the anterior and posterior compartment muscles.
Anterior Compartment
The anterior compartment muscles originate from the humerus. They primarily function as flexors and are also known as flexor muscles. They typically insert on the carpals, metacarpals, and phalanges. The superficial layer includes the flexor carpi...

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Hand Surgery
  • Trauma Surgery

Background:

  • Lunate dislocation is an uncommon wrist injury often missed during initial diagnosis.
  • Neglected lunate dislocations can result in severe complications, including wrist osteoarthritis, median nerve issues, and flexor tendon damage.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present the clinical and paraclinical characteristics of multiple flexor tendon ruptures.
  • To describe the surgical outcomes in a patient with a long-standing, neglected lunate dislocation.

Main Methods:

  • A case report detailing a patient with a 4-year neglected lunate dislocation and associated multiple flexor tendon ruptures.
  • Surgical management involved flexor tendon reconstruction using an autologous palmaris longus graft and lunate excision.

Main Results:

  • The patient underwent successful flexor tendon reconstruction and lunate excision.
  • At one-year follow-up, the patient demonstrated good finger motion and no signs of wrist osteoarthritis.

Conclusions:

  • Multiple flexor tendon ruptures secondary to neglected lunate dislocation represent a rare clinical scenario.
  • Surgical treatment resulted in a successful functional recovery, enabling the patient to resume daily work activities.
