Study Overview

Brief Summary

The goal of this study is to evaluate results of intramedullary screw fixation of metacarpal fractures while summarizing the pearls and pitfalls to maximize successful surgical outcomes in adults, Metacarpal fractures are third most common upper extremity fractures, Intramedullary screw Fixation is a fixation option that offers rigid stability, early active range of motion, and simplicity of insertion,
