SUMMARY — THE REDUCTIONReverse hemi-hamate autograft provides a surgical option for treating chronic volar PIP joint fracture-dislocations that are difficult to manage with standard approaches.
Abstract, as published

Volar proximal interphalangeal joint fracture-dislocations are rare injuries. Treatment is challenging when they are not identified acutely, with poor outcomes reported. We report a surgical technique to treat chronic volar proximal interphalangeal joint fracture-dislocations: a reverse hemi-hamate autograft.
