Abstract
Direct trauma to the dorsal aspect of the metacarpophalangeal joint is common in sports practice, especially in martial arts practitioners, who experience repetitive trauma to the closed fist. The rupture of the sagittal fibers of the metacarpophalangeal joints is a specific pathology of the boxer. We present here the case of a boxer operated for a fresh rupture of the sagittal fibers of the 3rd ray of the hand, with a good post-operative evolution.
