Abstract
Intra-articular fractures of the proximal phalanx head, especially with the condylar defect, are relatively rare but challenging for surgical treatment. Although several surgical procedures are available to reconstruct articular cartilage defects, the optimal method is unclear. This study reports a successful osteochondral reconstruction of proximal phalanx condylar defect in an athlete using the articular portion of the fifth metacarpal base.
