[Comparative evaluation of methods of fixation of metacarpal bone fragments].
The authors have carried out an experimental study of stability of the bone fragments of the 2-5th metacarpal bones in various hypes of fixation of the hands of fresh human cadavers. It has been established that the highest stability in all kinds of fractures in the conditions of functional loading is provided by osteosynthesis with rod apparatnses. A differential approach concerning the choice of the hype of osteosynthesis depending on the fracture plane is necessary in the treatment of the metacarpal bone injuries. An early functional loading of the fingers should be made with regard to the plane and the type of osteosynthesis.
