A Case of Fifth Metacarpal Neck Fracture
Aims: Determining the impact mechanism is one of the most important measures in forensic science. The mechanism of fracture of the metacarpal neck is squeezed directly into the fist. Often, this type of fracture is due to the impact of the first depending on the hard. In this study, we introduce a case of this fracture. Patient’s Information: He was a middle-aged man, who had ache with various ...
متن کاملRESPONSE OF METACARPAL FRACTURE FIXATION CONSTRUCTS TO PHYSIOLOGICAL LOADINGS
This study compares the functional capabilities of different metacarpal fixation constructs under physiological loadings in an attempt to identify the optimal construct rather than the strongest one. One hundred and twenty-six preserved human metacarpals were mechanically tested after oblique osteotomies and internal fixation. Maximum load to failure, average structural rigidity, and energ...
متن کاملMetacarpal stress fracture in amateur tennis player – an uncommon fracture☆
Most stress fractures occur in the lower limbs and are rarely observed in the upper limbs. The second metacarpal is the longest of all the metacarpals and has the largest base, articulating with the trapezium, trapezoid, capitate, and third metacarpal. In athletes, stress fractures in non-weight bearing joints are uncommon. Therefore, the shaft of the second metacarpal bone undergoes a higher l...
متن کاملExtracapsular extrusion of a horizontal metacarpal head fracture.
E10 J can chir, Vol. 52, N 1, février 2009 © 2009 Association médicale canadienne I ntra-articular fractures of the metacarpal head are rare, often requiring surgical fixation to maintain articular congruence. McElfresh and Dobyns presented a 10-group classification of 103 such fractures based on anatomic involvement and fracture pattern (Table 1). They identified only 4 with a horizontal fract...
متن کاملFixation for metacarpal neck fracture: a biomechanical study.
BACKGROUND There is no robust evidence of the best operative treatment for displaced unstable metacarpal neck fractures. Numerous constructs are used in the fixation of metacarpal neck fractures. Currently, two common methods are dorsal locking plate and K-wire fixation. A new metacarpal sled fixation system for metacarpal neck fracture was designed to provide fracture stability but limit disse...
