Use of Force Couple Devices for Treatment of PIP Fracture-Dislocations
2016
Successful management of proximal interphalangeal joint fracture-dislocations can be challenging. Patients with unstable joints and intact dorsal column may often be successfully treated with a force couple device. Its application can be performed percutaneously and allows for early range-of-motion while maintaining a congruent joint. This chapter illustrates a case example with management using a force couple device.
