The image is antero-posterior view of xray wrist with hand. The present xray shows badly comminuted fracture of base of fifth metacarpal. Also seen is fracture of fourth metacarpal.
Author’s Note
The type of fracture indicates that there was a strong traumatic force that caused so much comminution. In such case of damage to articular cartilage, the functional results are often poor.
