Minimally Invasive Intramedullary Rod Fixation of Multiple Metacarpal Shaft Fractures

Authors: George W, Balfour;

Minimally Invasive Intramedullary Rod Fixation of Multiple Metacarpal Shaft Fractures

Abstract

Metacarpal shaft fractures tend to shorten and angulate. This tendency is accentuated with the fracture of multiple metacarpals. A variety of methods for treatment have been described. The purpose of this study is to present the results of treatment in patients with multiple metacarpal shaft fractures, treated in a minimally invasive manner, with an intramedullary rod device.
