Abstract
Seventy eight patients with sequelae of interphalangeal finger joint injuries ( long-standing dislocations, fracture-dislocations, peri- and intracapsular fractures, contractures) were treated by modified hinge-distraction devices. In 1-3 years follow up outcomes were evaluated in 71 patients. Good results were achieved in 68 cases (95.8%). Use of our hinge-distraction devices excluded the superfluous mobility, provided the main axis of articular ends motion, volume constancy of the articular split as well as the possibility of active and passive movements that gave adequate conditions for the restoration of osteoarticular structures as well as surrounding soft tissues.
