Effect of Bicortical Interfragmentary Screw Size on the Fixation of Metacarpal Shaft Fractures: A 3-Dimensional-Printed Biomechanical Study

PURPOSE: Spiral metacarpal fractures fixed with 2 non-lagged, interfragmentary cortical screws were tested to failure. The effect of screw size (1.2 mm, 1.5 mm, 2.0 mm, and 2.3 mm) on construct strength was tested in 3-point bending. METHODS: Three-dimensional-printed metacarpal test models were rep...
