Abstract
Closed flexor pulley injuries have been reported in rock climbers. We report 6 digital flexor pulley injuries in 6 patients aged 5 to 73 years that were not associated with a climbing injury. Excellent outcomes were achieved through conservative therapy in 5 patients and surgical therapy in 1 patient.Entities:
