Stener-Like Lesions in the Hand: A Qualitative Review.

A Stener-like lesion is defined as the interposition of the sagittal band between the torn collateral ligament of the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint of a finger and its origin or insertion. Owing to the rarity of this injury, standardized protocols on the diagnosis and care of these injuries are not currently available. PubMed Central and Google Scholar were searched for published studies from 1962 to 2022.

Successful Non-operative Management of Metacarpophalangeal Collateral Ligament and Sagittal Band Rupture of the Long Finger: A Case Report.

The metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint is surrounded by various structures critical to its stability and function. Though the ligamentous injury to the digits is common, rupture of the metacarpophalangeal collateral ligament and a sagittal band of the same finger is not well represented in the literature. We report a chronic case of a concurrent metacarpophalangeal collateral ligament and sagittal band injury.
