Antegrade intramedullary pinning versus retrograde intramedullary pinning for displaced fifth metacarpal neck fractures.
BACKGROUND Severe angulation or shortening can be a surgical indication for fifth metacarpal neck fracture. In a previous meta-analysis, antegrade intramedullary pinning was shown to produce better hand function outcomes than percutaneous transverse pinning or miniplate fixation for treatment of fifth metacarpal neck fractures. However, the outcomes of retrograde intramedullary pinning, to our ...
متن کاملClinical outcomes of limited-open retrograde intramedullary headless screw fixation of metacarpal fractures.
PURPOSE To evaluate clinical and radiographic outcomes in patients treated with limited-open retrograde intramedullary headless compression screw (IMHS) fixation for metacarpal neck and shaft fractures. METHODS Retrospective review of prospectively collected data on a consecutive series of 39 patients (34 men; 5 women), mean age 28 years (range, 16-66 y) treated with IMHS fixation for acute d...
متن کاملSingle retrograde intramedullary wire fixation of metacarpal shaft fractures.
From 1993 to present day, 110 metacarpal fractures in 89 patients were stabilised using a method of inserting a percutaneous intramedullary wire. This allowed for early unimpeded movement in wrist and hand together with ease of wire removal in clinic. Reduction was maintained in all patients until fracture healing, and there were no malunions. One was re-done owing to inadequate reduction intra...
متن کاملMinimally invasive intramedullary rod fixation of multiple metacarpal shaft fractures.
Metacarpal shaft fractures tend to shorten and angulate. This tendency is accentuated with the fracture of multiple metacarpals. A variety of methods for treatment have been described. The purpose of this study is to present the results of treatment in patients with multiple metacarpal shaft fractures, treated in a minimally invasive manner, with an intramedullary rod device.
متن کاملFifth metacarpal neck fractures: fixation with antegrade locked flexible intramedullary nailing.
BACKGROUND Fifth metacarpal neck fractures (commonly named "boxer's fractures") are the most common metacarpal injuries and usually affect young active people. These lesions are mainly treated conservatively. Their surgical management, if indicated, is still a matter of debate. Different procedures have been described. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of 18 boxer's fractures w...
