Treatment of congenital swan neck deformity with dynamic tenodesis of proximal interphalangeal joint.

Congenital swan neck deformities in seven fingers of two patients were treated by transfer of the flexor digitorum superficialis tendon to a tendon graft which was attached the extensor aponeurosis over the middle phalanx. The tendon transfer is protected for at least 2 months by a modified Murphy splint.
