The Effect of Metacarpal Shortening on Finger Strength and Joint Motion: A Cadaveric Biomechanical Study

PURPOSE: Discrepancies exist between previous biomechanical and clinical studies when determining acceptable metacarpal shortening after metacarpal fractures. This study aimed to determine the amount of acceptable shortening after a metacarpal fracture before finger motion and strength is compromise...
