A Retrospective Study Of Mini-External Fixators In Hand Fractures

Abstract

Fractures of the hand need careful evaluation and proper management to get good functional outcome. Mobility is the watch word during the course of managing the hand fractures. We have analysed various methods of treatment for the phalangeal fractures and compared with mini-external fixators for treating unstable hand fractures. To evaluate the use of mini-external fixators in hand fractures and analyse the various advantages and disadvantages of this system and how to overcome it. A retrospective study of hand fractures treated by mini external fixators
