Overlapping of Fingers Due to Malunion of a Phalanx Corrected by a Metacarpal Rotational Osteotomy—Report of Two Cases

Abstract

Overlapping of fingers on flexion of the hand caused by malunion of a phalanx was corrected in two patients by a rotational osteotomy of the base of the corresponding metacarpal, avoiding a more delicate operation on the phalanx, with good results.
