Abstract | The mechanical rigidity of five different methods of pin fixation in two proximal phalangeal fracture models was studied and absorbable implants were compared with metallic implants in a biomechanical cadaver study. Thirty phalanges were tested in apex palmar bending, compression and torsion. Results showed that rigidity of absorbable implants was comparable with metallic implants, except in torsion. © 1997 The British Society for Surgery of the Hand. |
