Three rare cases of two-level skier’s thumb injuries—review of the literature, anatomical variants and surgical treatment

We report three rare cases of two-level skier's thumb injuries and explain the diagnostic challenges, surgical treatments, and anatomical explanations to emphasize the importance of a systematic diagnostic approach in every skier's thumb injury, including clinical examination, radiography, and ultrasonography. A surgical method to treat these rare cases is presented.

Abstract

We report three rare cases of two-level skier's thumb injuries and explain the diagnostic challenges, surgical treatments, and anatomical explanations to emphasize the importance of a systematic diagnostic approach in every skier's thumb injury, including clinical examination, radiography, and ultrasonography. A surgical method to treat these rare cases is presented.
