%X Following open reduction and internal fixation of finger fractures, postoperative stiffness is a potential problem, occurring in up to 51% of cases.1 Stiffness can be significantly reduced by using closed reduction and Kirschner wire (K-wire) fixation,2 although infection is a problem reportedly occurring in up to 18% of cases.
