“…Historically, the term blind splint is a rather ambiguous concept most often described as inflammation of the interosseous ligament between the second and third metacarpal bones and is a lesion that is not readily detectable externally by observation or palpation (Goble 1982). It has been surmised that the region of injury is difficult to detect on physical examination because the injury occurs on the axial (inner) side of the splint, between the small metacarpal bone and the suspensory ligament in the same region highlighted by Isgren et al (2020). It has been reported that histologically, the affected interosseous ligament usually consists primarily of chondroid tissue, whereas the normal interosseous ligament is primarily composed of dense white fibrous connective tissue.…”
