We retrospectively identified 143 patients (127 men and 16 women) with a mean age at the time of injury of 33.2 years (18 to 75). Electronic records were examined and patients were invited to complete the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) questionnaire in addition to a satisfaction questionnaire. The time since injury was a mean of 11.5 years (3.4 to 18.5). In total 11 patients had died, one had developed dementia and 12 patients were lost to follow-up. This left 119 patients available for recruitment. Of these, 57 did not respond, leaving a study group of 62 patients. Patients reported excellent functional outcomes and high levels of satisfaction at follow-up. Median satisfaction was 94% (interquartile range 91.5 to 97.5) and the mean DASH score was 3.0 (0 to 38). None of the patients had undergone salvage procedures and none of the responders had changed occupation or sporting activities. Long-term patient reported outcomes following displaced Bennett\u2019s fractures treated by closed reduction and K-wire fixation show excellent functional results and a high level of patient satisfaction. The rate of infection is low and similar to other surgical procedures with percutaneous K-wires. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2015;97-B:1004\u20136. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620x.97b7.35493","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,6,30]],"date-time":"2015-06-30T13:49:54Z","timestamp":1435672194000},"page":"1004-1006","update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1302\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Long-term patient-reported outcomes following Bennett\u2019s fractures"],"prefix":"10.1302","volume":"97-B","author":[{"given":"S.
