[The most common tendon injury in sports--hammer finger. Origin, classification, diagnosis and rational therapy].
The closed rupture of the distal digital extensor tendon at its attachment on the terminal phalanx the so-called mallet finger - is seen very often in ball games ("basketball finger", "baseball finger"). Closed rupture with and without a bony fragment can be distinguished. We demonstrate a rational and anatomy related way of treatment.
