Jersey Finger Injuries - What Are the Key Take Home Pearls?

The most common dislocation is the PIP joint and dorsal PIP dislocations where the middle failings are dorsal relative to the proximal anatomy. A Volar plate injury, which is only about 5% of hand dislocations, that's very commonly associated with a central slip injury. And if you get hyperflection of the extensor tendon tri-forgates it splits in three or four places - this can just cause an isolation problem. So these little a voltion fractures off the base of the middle phalanx on the Volar side, that's telling you you have a Volar Plate injury.
