The average follow-up period was 45.1 (13 to 78) months. Clinical assessment included measurement of range of motion (ROM) of the proximal and distal interphalangeal joint (PIP, DIP), grip and pinch strength, and pain with use of the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). At the postoperative X-ray, articular step off, gap, and degree of dorsal subluxation was measured, and maintenance of the reduction, fracture union, and the presence of degenerative changes were assessed.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Results\u2002All patients achieved solid unions without instability. The overall average range of motion of PIP joint were from 9\u00b0 to 85\u00b0 (10\u201383\u00b0 in the screw group, 8\u201387\u00b0 in the plate group without significant difference). However, the screw group (average: 53\u00b0) presented more flexion in the distal interphalangeal joint than the plate group (average: 34\u00b0). Plate fixation can cause limited DIP flexion. Six of the ten patients from the plate group, underwent implant removal and two of these patients required PIP joint arthrolysis due to the PIP flexion contracture of more than 30\u00b0. Three of the nine patients in screw group underwent implant removal and two of the three patients required PIP joint arthrolysis.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Conclusion\u2002Mini plate and screw fixation of acute PIP joint fracture dorsal dislocation can achieve comparable favorable clinical and radiographic outcomes through stable fixation and early range of motion exercise. Screw fixation, if possible, is probably preferable to plate fixation because of better DIP joint ROM and lower incidence of hardware removal. If there is a need for plate fixation the use of a short plate is recommended to avoid joint stiffness.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/a-1075-2668","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,5]],"date-time":"2020-03-05T23:31:15Z","timestamp":1583451075000},"page":"18-24","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["\ufeffOpen Reduction and Internal Fixation for Dorsal Fracture-dislocation of the Proximal Interphalangeal Joint"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"52","author":[{"given":"Jun-Ku","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Inje University Seoul Paik Hospital Department of Orthopaedic Surgery"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yoon Seok","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Inje University Seoul Paik Hospital Department of Orthopaedic Surgery"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jin-Hyun","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Madi Hospital"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gyu-Chol","family":"Jang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bundang CHA Medical Center Department of Orthopaedic Surgery"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Soo-Hong","family":"Han","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bundang CHA Medical Center Department of Orthopaedic Surgery"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,5]]},"container-title":["Handchirurgie \u00b7 Mikrochirurgie \u00b7 Plastische Chirurgie"],"original-title":[],"language":"de","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/a-1075-2668.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,5]],"date-time":"2020-03-05T23:31:16Z","timestamp":1583451076000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/a-1075-2668"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2020,2]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"01","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,3,5]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2020,2]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/a-1075-2668","relation":{},"ISSN":["0722-1819","1439-3980"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0722-1819","type":"print"},{"value":"1439-3980","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2020,2]]}}}
