Abstract EN
DeQuervain’s stenosing tenovaginitis is a common condition.
Nonsurgical treatment by corticosteroid injection has significantly improved the management of this disease.
The authors describe a case of subcutaneous rupture of the extensor pollicis longus tendon at the wrist, three months after two corticosteroid injections for DeQuervain’s stenosing tenovaginitis.
The etiological history has not found any trauma history of the wrist.
The aim of our work is to draw attention to this rare complication and discuss its therapeutic management.
Our functional results were excellent.
