A comparative cadaveric biomechanical analysis of the differences between dynamic external traction devices for PIP joint fracture dislocation.

A comparative cadaveric biomechanical analysis of the differences between dynamic external traction devices for PIP joint fracture dislocation.

Purpose: No study in the literature compares different external distractors for PIPJ injury. We compared a device described by Suzuki et al and another by Hynes & Giddins in non-injured cadaveric fingers. Main outcome measures were articular space and PIPJ flexion resistance. Methods: Thirty-t...
