Abstract

A 41-year-old woman presented to our emergency department after she tripped over a doorstep. Physical examination showed swelling and a stepladder deformity of the left little finger. Radiographs confirmed dorsal dislocation in both interphalangeal joints. Closed manual reduction under local anaesthesia restored position and function of the finger.
