What is a Boutonnière Deformity? (Fraser Health) [English] Permalink Public
This is when the middle joint of a finger becomes bent and the end joint becomes over-straight. It can start if there is a lot of swelling in the middle joint of the finger. The tendons that keep the finger straight get stretched, weak, slip out of place, and may eventually tear. (English) Colour
