About Displaced Bone in Hand

A displaced bone in the hand, often a fracture, occurs when the broken ends of a bone are no longer aligned. In pediatric orthopedics, treating this injury is critical to ensure proper healing and future growth of the child's hand. The primary procedure is a closed reduction, where the orthopedic surgeon gently manipulates the bones back into their correct position without surgery. If the fracture is unstable or involves a joint, a surgical procedure called open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) may be necessary. This involves a small incision to directly visualize the bones and use pins, screws, or plates to hold them in place. The goal is to restore normal anatomy, function, and growth potential in the child's developing hand.

Key Highlights

Restores proper alignment and function to the child's growing hand.Minimizes risk of long-term deformity, stiffness, or growth plate damage.Procedures are tailored to the child's age and specific injury for optimal outcomes.Pediatric orthopedic specialists use child-friendly techniques and pain management.Aims to ensure full return to play, sports, and daily activities.

Who is this surgery for?

A visible deformity or angulation of the finger or hand.
Inability to move the finger or hand normally.
Severe pain, swelling, and bruising following trauma (e.g., fall, sports injury).
An unstable fracture where bones cannot be held in place with a cast alone.
Fracture involving a joint (intra-articular) or the growth plate (physeal fracture).
An open fracture (bone breaks through the skin).

How to prepare

Medical evaluation including physical exam and X-rays to assess the fracture.
Discussion of the procedure, anesthesia options (often sedation or general), and risks with the pediatric orthopedic surgeon.
Fasting for several hours before the procedure if anesthesia is required.
Informing the doctor about the child's full medical history and any medications.
Arranging for post-procedure transportation and care at home.

Risks & possible complications

Infection, especially with open procedures.
Bleeding or bruising at the site.
Damage to nerves, blood vessels, or tendons near the fracture.
Stiffness or loss of range of motion in the hand or fingers.
Need for further surgery if healing is not satisfactory.
Rarely, growth disturbance if the injury affects the growth plate.

Recovery & hospital stay

The hand will be placed in a cast or splint to immobilize it for several weeks.
Pain is managed with prescribed medications.
Elevation of the hand is crucial for the first few days to reduce swelling.
Follow-up X-rays are scheduled to monitor bone healing.
Once the cast is removed, guided physical therapy or exercises are often needed to restore strength and flexibility.
A gradual return to normal activities and sports as approved by the doctor.

Typical hospital stay: 0-1 days (often outpatient for closed reduction; ORIF may require a short stay)
Expected recovery time: 4-8 weeks for bone healing, with several months for full strength and motion

PATIENT REVIEW

Neha Gupta is a bright and...

Neha Gupta is a bright and energetic 8-year-old who loves gymnastics and drawing. She lives with her parents and younger brother in a suburban home. During a routine practice at her gymnastics club, Neha fell awkwardly from the uneven bars, landing on her outstretched right hand. She immediately felt a sharp, intense pain and her hand began to swell and look deformed near her wrist. Her coach applied ice and her parents rushed her to the emergency room. An X-ray confirmed a displaced fracture of the distal radius, one of the main forearm bones, just above the wrist. The pediatric orthopedist, Dr. Chen, explained that the bone ends were not aligned and would not heal properly without intervention. She recommended a closed reduction and percutaneous pinning. This meant gently manipulating the bones back into place under sedation (a procedure called closed reduction) and then using thin, temporary wires (pins) inserted through the skin to hold them perfectly in position while they healed. Neha was very scared of the idea of 'pins' and surgery. Her parents and Dr. Chen used a doll and simple drawings to explain the process, reassuring her she would be asleep and feel no pain. The procedure was performed the next day in the operating room. Under anesthesia, Dr. Chen successfully realigned the bones and placed two small pins. Neha woke up with a bulky cast covering the pins. She was sore but manageable with medication. After two weeks, the swelling decreased and she got a lighter fiberglass cast. The pins were removed in the clinic after 4 weeks (a quick, slightly uncomfortable but painless moment), and the cast came off at 6 weeks. Guided by a hand therapist, Neha diligently did her exercises to regain strength and flexibility. Within three months, she was back to drawing and, with her doctor's clearance, gradually returned to gymnastics. Emotionally, Neha went from being terrified and sad about missing her activities to feeling proud of her bravery. The visible pins in her cast became a badge of honor at school. Her recovery taught her resilience, and the support from her medical team turned a frightening experience into one of empowerment.
