Metacarpal fractures are common and can be functionally disabling. The majority are managed non-operatively. When surgical intervention is indicated, various methods of fixation are available with the utility of each being based on injury pattern, patient function and surgeon preference.

Phalangeal and Metacarpal Fractures
Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 2019The management of phalangeal and metacarpal fractures continues to evolve. Nonoperative or less invasive techniques, limiting the need for soft tissue dissection and resultant stiffness, are being developed and becoming more popular. The competing forces of fracture stability to optimize healing and early mobilization to optimize function need careful ...

Metacarpal fractures in the athlete
The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 1989Fifty-six fractures of the metacarpal occurring in 53 athletes were studied from September 1985 to Decem ber 1986, regarding mechanism of injury, type of frac ture, type of treatment, and time lost from sport. Age range of the patients was 8 to 28 years with greater than 77% being in the 14 to 18 year age range, the high school athlete.

Fractures of the Fourth Metacarpal
Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 1997To determine (a) the degree of shortening associated with isolated fourth metacarpal fractures and the functional outcome after operative or nonoperative (protocol of casting and outrigger) treatment (clinical portion), and (b) the role of the deep metacarpal ligament in minimizing shortening after isolated fourth metacarpal osteotomies simulating ...

Fractures of the Thumb Metacarpal
Southern Medical Journal, 1972Fractures occurring at the base of the first metacarpal are classified. Manipulation and closed reduction with or without pinning is the usual method of treatment. Occasionally, an intra-articular fracture will require open repair and pin fixation.

Metacarpal Fractures and Dislocations
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1992Metacarpal fractures are common injuries. Most can be treated successfully by closed reduction and cast or splint immobilization. Unstable fractures, however, require internal fixation. Many such techniques are discussed. Metacarpal dislocations are more difficult to diagnose and treat than are metacarpal fractures.

Metacarpal and Phalangeal Fractures
Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1993Metacarpal and phalangeal fractures are common presenting injuries in many emergency departments. The emergency physician should become skilled at properly evaluating and initiating appropriate management and follow-up for these injuries when they occur. Failure to properly do so may result in permanent disability.

Fractures of the fifth metacarpal
Acta Radiologica, 2009Background: The literature is limited concerning the epidemiological issues of fracture in the fifth metacarpal bone. Purpose: To explore the incidence and types of this fracture, and how the fracture is related to age, gender, trauma mechanism, and at what day of the week the causing trauma occurred.

Background. The purpose of our study was to evaluate bone union in metacarpal fractures, in terms of the pathomorphic nature of the damage and the use of surgical treatment. Severe multi-tissue damage and fracture with Bennett's dislocation were excluded. Material and methods.
