28 Ιουλ 2020 · Several techniques are currently available for the surgical treatment of the fifth metacarpal neck fracture, including crossed pinning with Kirschner (K)-wire, antegrade intramedullary...
4 Φεβ 2021 · The management of fifth metacarpal fractures varies from one setting to another. Conservative management is the preferred option for closed, non-angulated, non-malrotated fractures while open fractures, significant angulation, rotational deformity, and intra-articular extension are recognised indications for surgical intervention.
Purpose To describe management trends of fifth metacarpal neck (5MCN) fractures within a large health care system. We aimed to define patient and surgeon factors associated with nonsurgical versus surgical treatment, as well as to identify factors associated with receiving care only in the emergency department (ED).
Non-operative management. Non-operative management is appropriate for the majority of 5th MC neck fractures1-3 and can be achieved with a single appointment. Buddy taping and early motion of the digit is the most common intervention required for this fracture.
1 Μαρ 2016 · We investigated the outcomes of the antegrade intramedullary nailing (AIMN) compared to other surgical modalities in the treatment for fifth metacarpal neck fractures via a systematic...
1 ημέρα πριν · Intramedullary fixation (IMF) has emerged as an effective treatment for metacarpal fractures. Benefits include stable fixation that allows early postoperative rehabilitation and high fracture union rates, without increased complications. Both headless compression screws and intramedullary threaded noncompressive nails have been described for this purpose; however, prospective outcomes ...
The majority of metacarpal fractures can be treated nonoperatively. Acceptance of mild deformity is often prefer-able to surgical treatment. Fractures of the 5th metacarpal appear to do particularly well when treated conservatively (Table 1)[37]. A retrospective review performed by Westbrook et al. ex-amined patients with isolated small finger ...
