At final follow-up, the total active motion score of the injured finger was graded as excellent, good, fair, or poor if it was greater than 240\u00b0, 220\u2013240\u00b0, 180\u2013219\u00b0, or less than 180\u00b0, respectively. Complications were also documented. The results were compared with our previously published series of these fractures treated with two other techniques: percutaneous K-wires immobilizing the metacarpophalangeal joint and open reduction and interosseous loop wire fixation. The final TAM scores in the current study were excellent in 43%, good in 29%, fair in 14% and poor in 14%. Four out of the 35 patients (11%) had minor pin tract infection. These results were significantly better than the results following percutaneous K-wire fixation immobilizing the metacarpophalangeal joint indicating that immediate mobilization of all joints has a significant effect on the outcome.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1753193411405943","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,5,5]],"date-time":"2011-05-05T20:59:09Z","timestamp":1304629149000},"page":"577-583","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Displaced unstable transverse fractures of the shaft of the proximal phalanx of the fingers in industrial workers: reduction and K-wire fixation leaving the metacarpophalangeal and proximal interphalangeal joints free"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"36","author":[{"given":"Mohammad M.","family":"Al-Qattan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,5,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-1753193411405943","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1753193408090130"},{"key":"bibr2-1753193411405943","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0363-5023(84)80023-4"},{"key":"bibr3-1753193411405943","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0266-7681(91)90162-H"},{"key":"bibr4-1753193411405943","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000637-199808000-00003"},{"key":"bibr5-1753193411405943","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0266-7681_87_90049-0"},{"key":"bibr6-1753193411405943","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0363-5023(95)80176-6"},{"key":"bibr7-1753193411405943","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0363-5023(05)80436-8"},{"key":"bibr8-1753193411405943","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1054\/jhsb.2000.0524"},{"key":"bibr9-1753193411405943","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.ta.0000214887.31745.c4"},{"key":"bibr10-1753193411405943","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jhsb.2005.09.013"},{"key":"bibr11-1753193411405943","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3944\/AOTT.2009.317"},{"key":"bibr12-1753193411405943","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0363-5023(98)80157-3"},{"key":"bibr13-1753193411405943","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0363-5023(89)80006-1"},{"key":"bibr14-1753193411405943","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0363-5023(10)80023-1"},{"key":"bibr15-1753193411405943","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/230949900701500218"},{"key":"bibr16-1753193411405943","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1054\/jhsb.2000.0499"},{"key":"bibr17-1753193411405943","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0749-0712(21)01123-9"}],"container-title":["Journal of Hand Surgery (European Volume)"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/1753193411405943","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1177\/1753193411405943","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/1753193411405943","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,29]],"date-time":"2026-04-29T22:44:34Z","timestamp":1777502674000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/1753193411405943"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2011,5,5]]},"references-count":17,"journal-issue":{"issue":"7","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2011,9]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/1753193411405943"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/1753193411405943","relation":{},"ISSN":["1753-1934","2043-6289"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1753-1934","type":"print"},{"value":"2043-6289","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2011,5,5]]}}}
