[Metacarpal fractures. Use of an external cemented wire fixation device].
Osteosynthesis for fractures of the metacarpals using a simplified system of Kirschner wires introduced percutaneously and maintained by an acrylic cement bridge has been performed in 40 patients. Consolidation was obtained consistently, within one month on average, with almost no morbidity and virtually without sequelae. This procedure is extremely simple and can be used for all extra-articular fractures of the metacarpals with displacement.
