The aim of surgical intervention for the treatment of metacarpal fractures is to restore the best possible function. This study of 61 patients who were treated utilizing different osteosynthesis techniques demonstrates out-standing long-term results. Conservative treatment may be adaeqaute for the treatment of uncomplicated and minimally dislocated fractures. For serial fractures and fractures involving joints, however, there is no alternative to osteo-synthesis.
手术干预治疗掌骨骨折的目的是尽可能恢复最佳功能。这项对61例采用不同接骨术治疗的患者的研究显示出了出色的长期效果。对于无并发症且轻度移位的骨折，保守治疗可能就足够了。然而，对于多发性骨折和累及关节的骨折，接骨术是唯一的选择。
