Abstract
Today most fractures are managed successfully by non‐operative modalities as most fractures are functionally stable before and after closed reduction and are well managed with protective splint and early mobilization. General systematic and local examination were done to assess other associated injuries and open wounds followed by radiological evaluation in AP and oblique views. Once the diagnosis is confirmed and patient notified about the fracture and need for surgery. His consent is taken and pre op planning done. Single metacarpal involvement being the most common accounting for 76% of the cases. Transverse fracture pattern being most common accounting for 46%.
