Finger Fractures - you can change your mind about the management.
A young 16 yr old basketball player sustained a middle phalanx condyle fracture. After first trying a conservative splint the condylar fragment did not position adequately and so a K wire was used to get a better position.
This case illustrates how fracture management can change dependent on the outcome of conservative treatment first. You can change your management plan if necessary.
