Proximal avulsion rupture of the flexor digitorum longus (FDL) tendon associated with an ankle dislocation is extremely rare. We report a case of a 29 years old patient presenting a severe open ankle dislocation with flexor digitorum longus tendon tear after a motorcycle accident. We performed wound debridement, ankle reduction, tendon repair and stabilization with external fixation. At our last follow-up 17 months after the operation, the patient had good functional outcome and returned to work. This report is noticeable as it is, to the best of our knowledge, the third study reporting a case with simultaneous open ankle dislocation and proximal avulsion rupture of the FDL tendon.
趾长屈肌腱(FDL)近端撕脱断裂合并踝关节脱位极为罕见。我们报告一例29岁患者,在摩托车事故后出现严重开放性踝关节脱位并伴有趾长屈肌腱撕裂。我们进行了伤口清创、踝关节复位、肌腱修复并采用外固定进行稳定治疗。在术后17个月的最后一次随访中,患者功能恢复良好并重返工作岗位。据我们所知,本报告值得关注,因为这是第三例同时报告开放性踝关节脱位和FDL肌腱近端撕脱断裂病例的研究。
