Abstract

The extensor indicis proprius (EIP) tendon and extensor digitorum communis (EDC) tendons are the main extensor tendons of the second finger. Different variations of extensor tendons are frequently reported. In our report, we describe a variation of the index finger extensor mechanism in a healthy subject.
