“…In cases of one or two metacarpals dislocating, then an incision centred on the dislocated rays is the most practical approach to reduce these joints. When compared to palmar incisions, the dorsal incisions give sufficient visibility with less chance of inadvertent intra-operative injuries to nerves, vessels and tendons [5,41]. On the other hand, when compared with dorsal transverse incisions, the dorsal longitudinal incisions help preserve the dorsal venous network, thus making them more favourable [1,5,42].…”
