description BACKGROUND AND AIM: We present the case of a 18 year old patient with history of two years of index disability, our purpose is to describe an atypical cause of digit dysfunction. METHODS: An anomalous fibrous cord between the flexor superficialis tendon indicis and radius was found in a young man’s distal forearm upon surgical exploration after 2 years of index disability. RESULTS: The excision of the fibrous cord resulted in quick and complete recovery. CONCLUSIONS: We offer our experience with this case in the differential diagnosis of digit disability.
