Percutaneous Pinning on Finger/Thumb Fracture

Percutaneous Pinning on Finger/Thumb Fracture is available through Mishe Health Plan at a published cash price, paid when you book.

Percutaneous skeletal fixation of an unstable phalangeal shaft fracture involves the use of minimally invasive techniques to stabilize and align broken bones in the finger or thumb. This type of fracture occurs along the shaft of the proximal or middle phalanx and is often caused by trauma such as falls, sports injuries, or direct impacts. During the procedure, the surgeon inserts pins or wires through the skin and into the bone fragments to hold them in place without making a large incision. This technique helps to ensure proper bone alignment and stability, promoting effective healing. The goal of the procedure is to restore normal finger or thumb function, reduce pain, and minimize complications such as malunion or stiffness.
