“…However, it is important for both the patient and physician to understand some degree of overlap and variability may be normal. One study of 240 uninjured digits found that 90% of individuals had overlap of up to 50% of the adjacent nail plate, and most subjects had overlap involving different digits among both hands [3]. Therefore, hand function should be of greater priority than strict appearance and symmetry.…”

Purpose of review To describe current evaluation and treatment of metacarpal fractures in athletes Recent findings Biomechanical and clinical studies involving lower-profile, locking, shorter length, and double-row or separate-dual plate configurations, as well as intramedullary screw fixation, have demonstrated the potential benefits of internal fixation with promising results. Summary Treatment should be customized to the specific athlete and injury, and is often successful without surgery, or with percutaneous pin fixation. Internal fixation of metacarpal fractures has improved with new hardware and new techniques, and may expedite return to play, although further clinical studies are needed.

“…Our study confirmed variable pronation at the IP joint of the thumb previously demonstrated by these ex vivo studies. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] Furthermore, we propose that, using accepted noninvasive photographic methodology, 10,11 preoperative IP joint pronation can be reliably measured and incorporated into thumb IP joint arthrodesis procedures. In cases with distorted thumb pathology, comparative measurements can be taken from the contralateral thumb IP joint.…”
