Abstract

The authors present a short series of 30 displaced fractures of the neck of the fifth metacarpal. All fractures were treated by K-wire nailing according to the method described by Fourcher in 1976. The good results confirm the advantages of this technique, allowing early mobilization and rehabilitation. The poor results are due to faults in the use of the method, and the authors emphasize these technical errors.
