Abstract

We describe a minimally invasive percutaneous technique incorporating articular surface reaming for distal interphalangeal joint arthrodesis and report its clinical outcomes in ten patients. All patients achieved bone union at 6 weeks. Pain and functional scores improved at the 2-year follow-up.
