Abstract
We describe a case of rotational dislocation of the proximal interphalangeal joint of the ring finger. This injury was not initially appreciated and therefore closed reduction failed. The clinical findings included puckering of the skin on the dorsum of the joint and rotational incongruity on radiographs. At open reduction there was interposition of the lateral band. Identification of the pathology allows early successful treatment.
