Aneurysmal Bone Cyst of the Fifth Metacarpal

Orthopedics, 2009
Aneurysmal bone cyst is a rare, rapidly growing, and destructive benign bone tumor that even more rarely involves the bones of the hand. Various treatment options for aneurysmal bone cyst have been reported in the literature, but controversy exists regarding optimal treatment.

Foreign-Body Osteitis of the Metacarpal Bone

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1992
Foreign-body granulomas in the hand can appear secondary to an unrecognized foreign material. In a six-year-old boy, an extensive sterile osteitis of the second metacarpal bone appeared adjacent to a wood splinter.

Subcapital fractures of the fifth metacarpal bone

Archives of Orthopaedic and Traumatic Surgery, 1984
The incidence of upper extremity fractures was 8.8 per 1,000 inhabitants per year. Five per cent of these fractures occurred in the subcapital region of the fifth metacarpal bone. In a patient series the volar angulation after subcapital fracture of the fifth metacarpal bone was determined with a novel technique and related to functional and cosmetic ...

Stress fracture of the second metacarpal bone

Skeletal Radiology, 2004
Stress fractures are usually encountered in athletes; however, only eight such cases involving the metacarpal bones have been reported in the English literature. We report on the rare case of a 15-year-old female tennis player with a stress fracture of the second metacarpal bone.

Intraosseous ganglion in the first metacarpal bone

Skeletal Radiology, 2001
Intraosseous ganglia occur most frequently in the long bones of the lower limbs, particularly in the medial malleolus of the tibia. They usually appear as radiographically well circumscribed juxta-articular cystic lesions, containing myxoid fibrous tissue histologically. Intraosseous ganglia in the hand are very rare.

Measurement of Bone Thickness from Radiographs of a Metacarpal Bone

Gerontologia Clinica, 2009
The inter- and intra-observer variation for the measurement of the length, external diameter, and internal diameter of the right second metacarpal bone in X-rays of the hand have been studied in two series of 100 consecutive X-rays in old people. The observer variation for length and external diameter were negligible, but that for internal diameter was

FRACTURES AT THE BASE OF THE FIRST METACARPAL BONE

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1964
1. A large proportion of fractures were poorly reduced in this series either because the method used was inadequate or because it was inexpertly applied. At first it was thought that immobilisation in plaster gave adequate fixation but it was impossible to be certain that the reduction was not sometimes lost in the interval between manipulation and ...

Reconstruction of a phalangeal bone using a vascularised metacarpal bone graft nourished by a dorsal metacarpal artery

Injury, 2008
We report on a patient with an infected nonunion of the left little-finger phalanges following a gunshot injury. The defect was treated by transplanting a partial fifth metacarpus, vascularised by the fourth dorsal metacarpal vessels. Bone union was obtained 6 months after surgery and no signs of infection were found at the site of the nonunion ...
