Small Finger Metacarpal Shaft Wedged between Ring and Small Metacarpal Bases: a Report of 2 Cases
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
We present two patients with a displaced fracture of the small finger metacarpal base, where the shaft of the small finger metacarpal was wedged between the bases of the ring and small finger metacarpals. The striking appearance on radiographs led to initial recommendations for surgery, but both patients preferred non-operative treatment and did well in the short term without surgery

متن کاملIntramedullary nailing of metacarpal shaft fractures.
Uncorrected bony deformity or stiffness resulting from a metacarpal shaft fracture can produce a significant functional or cosmetic deficit. Intramedullary fixation of metacarpal shaft fractures using small flexible rods can provide stable internal fixation while minimizing the extent of soft tissue trauma that is associated with more extensive surgical techniques such as plate or screw fixatio...
متن کاملOperative treatment of metacarpal and phalangeal shaft fractures.
Diaphyseal fractures of the metacarpals and phalanges are common injuries that can lead to impairment of hand function. The fracture pattern and soft-tissue injury vary with the mechanism of injury. The imbalance of the flexor and extensor forces created by displaced fractures will often produce a secondary angulatory deformity. Nonoperative treatment is indicated for reducible and stable fract...
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.
