N2  - Chip of avulsion fractures in the hand range in severity from dorsal cortical avulsion of the carpal triquetrium to Bennett's fracture dislocation. Recognition of the fragment's size, displacement, and relationship to an articular surface is essential for proper management. Accurate roentgenograms play a key role in this evaluation. The hands of athletes have special requirements for strength and dexterity and can ill afford the casual diagnosis and frequent undertreatment of these chip fractures that represent articular surfaces.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
