Resumen (ES)
Wrist fractures are one of the most common fractures in the emergency areas of our hospitals, accounting for 14% of all limb
injuries and 17% of fractures treated in the emergency room. The surgery of the same using volar plates has increased in
recent years due to the possibility of blocking the screws, this being the surgical treatment of choice in our country. Among the
complications of this type of treatment is tendon injury, due to the synthetic material, both flexors and extensors, being
extremely rare the rupture of the Extensor Indicis Propius (EIP) and Extensor Digitorum Comunis of the index finger (EDCi).
We present a case of rupture of both tendons after treatment with volar plate, its causes, its resolution and its possible
prevention
