The internet is an important information source for hand surgery fellowship applicants. A previous analysis of hand fellowship websites in 2014 demonstrated they were often inaccessible and incomplete. Given the increased importance of virtual information, we performed an updated assessment of the accessibility and content of hand fellowship program websites.

Angiolipomas of the hand and wrist are rare presentations with only a few case reports in the literature. These subtypes of lipomas can be infiltrating or noninfiltrating, often affecting treatment outcomes and strategies. Angiolipomas can present as tender masses and, on average, will appear much larger than simple lipomas. We present a case involving a patient with a large palmar…

Mashup Score: 0Spontaneous Midsubstance Rupture of the Flexor Digitorum Profundus Tendon of the Long Finger - 2 year(s) ago
Closed flexor tendon injuries can often result from trauma that causes sudden forceful extension of an actively flexed digit. These closed tendon injuries commonly occur as avulsions in flexor zone I. Spontaneous midsubstance flexor tendon ruptures are rare, especially in the absence of an underlying pathology. Diagnosing such injuries accurately is challenging and critical. We present a case of…
