abstract="<p>In addition to fracture pattern, the management of phalangeal fractures in professional football players is in large dictated by nonbiologically related factors such as the remaining games in the season, player position, and hand dominance. The treatment of an unstable, displaced transverse proximal phalanx fracture in the nondominant hand of a lineman may vary considerably from the identical fracture in the throwing hand of a quarterback. Unique considerations for management of these common fractures in high-level football players are briefly reviewed.  Keywords: American football; </p> <p>Language: en</p>",
