Ulnar-sided carpometacarpal (CMC) joint fracture dislocations are relatively uncommon, frequently associated with fractures of the metacarpal base and/or hamate, and often sustained by young male individuals secondary to striking a hard object. The complexity of ulnar-sided CMC fracture dislocations necessitates careful restitution of anatomic alignment and joint congruency for mobility and stability. Miniaturization of the external fixation device has allowed application to the hand. Read More

Old fractures and dislocations of the base of the fifth metacarpal may result in post-traumatic arthrosis which is troublesome from a functional point of view and characterized by a difficult management. Stabilized arthroplasty is based on arthroplastic resection of the base of the fifth metacarpal associated with lateral diaphysometaphyseal arthrodesis between the fourth and the fifth metacarpal. This study involving two patients aimed to describe the advantages and the peculiarities of stabilized arthroplasty compared to other techniques in the treatment of the sequelae of fractures and dislocations of the base of the fifth metacarpal.

Background: Complex periarticular fractures of the metacarpophalangeal joint (MCPJ) are often challenging to treat. Conservative and operative treatments are often burdened with stiffness, loss of function, and poor clinical outcome. These phenomena could be a direct consequence of long period of immobilization.

Injuries of the carpometacarpal joints of the long fingers are infrequent and go often unnoticed if a thorough clinical exploration and complete radiological assessment is not carried out. The overall frequency of carpometacarpal joints injuries is of 1-2% among trauma of the wrist and the carpus. These are normally secondary to high energy trauma (such as a car or a motorbike accidents). Read More

A Bennett fracture is a common injury that involves an intra-articular fracture at the base of the first metacarpal. This fracture typically results in a dorsally and radially displaced metacarpal shaft relative to the well-anchored volar ulnar fragment. Most Bennett fractures are treated with operative fixation, including closed reduction and percutaneous fixation, open reduction and internal fixation, or arthroscopically assisted fixation.

We propose a method for open reduction and internal fixation of early and unstable ulnar (fourth and/or fifth) carpometacarpal joint (CMCJ) fracture subluxations or dislocations using a dorsal buttress plate. In ulnar CMCJ fracture dislocations, the metacarpal has a tendency to displace dorsally and proximally when there is an axial load. Using the dorsal buttress plate method of fixation, a plate is fixed proximally to the hamate, aligned parallel and dorsal to the metacarpal to act as a buttress, to resist this movement. Read More

The hand is especially prone to traumatic injury. Some sources indicate that injuries to the hand account for somewhere between 10% and 30% of patients treated in emergency care settings. Fractures are the most common injury, followed by tendon injury, then skin lesions. Read More

Introduction: Shoulder injuries after high velocity trauma are common. Clavicle is affected in almost half of these cases. Even so, bipolar dislocation of the clavicle is an unusual injury and seldom reported in the literature. Read More

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the mid-term results of patients with surgically treated 4th and 5th carpometacarpal (CMC) fracture dislocation.
Methods: The study included 9 CMC dislocation patients (9 males; mean age: 31.2 years, range: 20 to 40 years) treated with open reduction and internal fixation between 2008 and 2012. Read More

We herein report an unusual case of a fracture-dislocation of the thumb metacarpal base. The injury consisted of features typical of Bennett's fracture-dislocation of the thumb trapeziometacarpal joint, with additional rotation of the proximal fragment, signifying a greater ligamentous injury. Radiographic features of this injury are discussed together with its pathomechanics. Read More

Acute traumatic lesions of the base of the first metacarpal are frequent and their consequences can affect the opposition of the thumb. They usually occur after trauma in compression along the axis of the thumb in flexion. Restoring the anatomy and biomechanics of the trapeziometacarpal joint is essential when treating these injuries, hence why surgical treatment is usually indicated. Read More

Introduction: Double dislocation of thumb metacarpal (MC) is a rare injury which may be secondarily complicated by growth plate injury in children. The management of floating 1st MC is also controversial since the treatment ranges from simple reduction to complex reconstruction surgeries. It is also important to understand the long-term results of different management strategies (close reduction, K-wire fixation, ligament reconstruction) as any residual stiffness or instability of thumb may result in severe disability of the hand.

Most hand fractures can be treated non-operatively. Some hand fractures, such as open injuries or markedly displaced intra-articular fractures, are almost always treated operatively. The treatment of many fractures, such as proximal interphalangeal joint fracture subluxations or spiral phalangeal fractures, is unclear. Read More

Background: Osteoarthritis of the trapeziometacarpal joint of thumb occurs frequently and can be very disabling. Numerous surgical techniques including trapeziectomy with or without tendon interposition arthrodesis and partial or total joint arthroplasty with cemented and noncemented prosthesis have been described for the treatment of trapeziometacarpal joint osteoarthritis. Initial problems of osteolysis and implant loosening have been substantially reduced with improvement in implant design. Read More

Fracture dislocations of the fifth carpometacarpal are usually treated by percutaneous K-wires despite occasional complications: displacement, stiffness, malunions, and arthritis. Our aims were to evaluate the use of locked K-wire fixation for these fracture dislocations. Our series includes 31 fracture dislocations, five extra-articular and 26 articular, 21 of which were at the base of the metacarpal, four at the hamate, and one involving both the hamate and the metacarpal.

Introduction: The purpose of the current study was to investigate the effects of residual articular incongruity after Bennett's fracture on load distribution of the joint surface. Our aim was to investigate whether a residual joint step and the altered load distribution led to negative clinical outcomes or symptomatic degenerative osteoarthritis of the trapeziometacarpal joint.
Patients And Methods: Twenty-four patients were available for long-term follow-up examination and were contacted by phone, and they returned for follow-up examination. Read More
