A passionate climber injured his hand while climbing. After the injury, the little finger became crooked. This bothers the man when climbing because it was harder for him to grasp. He had not gone to the doctor after the injury. Now the man’s finger could no longer straighten.
The doctor now treating her suspects that scar tissue has formed in the joint capsule. He then recommends an operation to the patient, in which the scar tissue is to be removed with a special incision. During the operation, the doctor notices that the joint is not scarred, but that there is a disease behind the limitation of the finger.
The man’s age initially misled the doctor, as a young patient with the condition is a rarity. The disease has a hereditary component – this patient also confirms that his father also suffers from it.PAID STERN 2020_15 The diagnosis: jittering and stuttering 10.30
