Can Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Help Decision Making on Post-traumatic Treatment of a Proximal Phalanx Fracture?
Proximal phalanx fractures are common. Impingements of flexor tendons on the fractured segment after intervention may occur and can be diagnosed by high-resolution ultrasound. The present report highlights the usefulness of musculoskeletal ultrasound in evaluation of persistent finger pain after a p...

| description | Proximal phalanx fractures are common. Impingements of flexor tendons on the fractured segment after intervention may occur and can be diagnosed by high-resolution ultrasound. The present report highlights the usefulness of musculoskeletal ultrasound in evaluation of persistent finger pain after a proximal phalanx fracture and the importance of dynamic examination in identifying the painful mechanism, which may alter the decision regarding the postoperative treatment course. |
