Abstract
Biodegradable PDS-rods have been used for the treatment of phalangeal neck fractures to oppose the disadvantages and complications of K-wire fixation. Reduction can be maintained during fracture healing, and the surrounding joints can be mobilized early. Because of the recessed position of the rods, there is no interference with motion.
