[Transposition of the Ring Finger after Severe Hand Injury]
1Unfallchirurgie, LKH Wiener Neustadt, Wien, Österreich.
Abstract:
We report a severe hand injury with a fracture of the third metacarpal bone, destruction of the metacarpophalangeal joint of the fourth finger, amputation of the little finger of the right hand and several tendon injuries, in an active musician. The fourth metacarpal bone was offset close to the base, the hand narrowed, and the ring finger transferred to the base of the little finger. The outcome was very favourable.
