Finger joint dislocation is a common hand injury. Finger dislocation can occur at the proximal interphalangeal (PIP), distal interphalangeal (DIP), or metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints. Unrecognized or untreated finger dislocations are associated with deformities, stiffness, loss of function, and chronic pain. This activity reviews the epidemiology, anatomy, key examination findings, imaging, treatment, surgical approaches, and complications of finger dislocation. The activity also highlights the examiner’s role in evaluating potential complications, the mechanism of injuries, and the importance of orthopedic and hand surgery consultations to improve care for patients with finger dislocations.
