Skeletal pathologies in extant crocodilians as a window into the paleopathology of fossil archosaurs

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 10, Page 2698-2724, October 2026.
Abstract Crocodilians, together with birds, are the only extant relatives to many extinct archosaur groups, making them highly important for interpreting paleopathological conditions in a phylogenetic disease bracketing model. Despite this, comprehensive data on osteopathologies in crocodilians remain scarce.

What is the real angle of deviation of metacarpal neck fractures on oblique views? A radiographic study

Revista Brasileira de Ortopedia, 2016
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to establish an indirect, easy-to-use, predictable and safe means of obtaining the true degree of displacement of fractures of the neck of the fifth metacarpal bone, through oblique radiographic views.

Management of extra-articular fractures of the fifth metacarpal: Operative vs. Non-opeRaTive TrEatment (FORTE) – A systematic review and meta-analysis

JPRAS Open, 2019
Summary: Aims: Extra-articular fifth metacarpal fractures are treated operatively and non-operatively without consensus. We aim to establish whether there are differences in patient-reported outcome, objective clinical outcome and adverse events for ...

Anatomic Assessment of K-Wire Trajectory for Transverse Percutaneous Fixation of Small Finger Metacarpal Fractures: A Cadaveric Study

, 2017
Background: The purpose of this cadaveric study is to evaluate the trajectory of percutaneous transverse Kirschner wire (K-wire) placement for fifth metacarpal fractures relative to the sagittal profile of the fifth metacarpal in order to develop a ...

Fifth metacarpal neck fractures: fixation with antegrade locked flexible intramedullary nailing

, 2017
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.

Comparing biomechanical strength of unicortical locking plate versus bicortical compression plate for transverse midshaft metacarpal fracture

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery, 2018
Purpose: Metacarpal bone fractures constitute 10% of all fractures. Unstable metacarpal fractures require surgical intervention, which poses danger to flexor tendon either due to bicortical drilling or construct of the implant.

Comminuted fractures of the base of the first metacarpal treated by distraction-external fixation.

, 1988
A new technique is presented for the treatment of comminuted intraarticular fractures of the base of the thumb metacarpal. A triangular Hoffmann external radius and first- and second-metacarpal fixator is used.
