pubmed:abstractText |
It is generally accepted that severely displaced or malrotated neck fractures of the fifth metacarpal should be treated by closed reduction and pinning. As antegrade intramedullary splinting avoids adhesions of the extensor hood and provides intramedullary stability this technique seems to be advantageous in comparison with traditional retrograde percutaneous crossed pinning. We raised the question whether the antegrade technique would give clinical and radiological results superior to the retrograde technique and investigated this within a comparative clinical study.
