Abstract
Adhesions between lumbricales and interossei muscles are known as “saddle deformities.” Clinical diagnosis of saddle deformities of the hand requires a high index of clinical suspicion; this specific injury is often missed or remains undiagnosed using conventional X-ray or MRI techniques. Although the “gold standard” for treatment is surgical release of the adhesions, ultrasound-guided steroid injections at the site of adhesions could be considered a promising treatment option prior to surgical management and, as illustrated in this case, is shown to provide adequate pain relief and positive outcomes for the patient.
