Surgical outcome of volar plate arthroplasty of the proximal interphalangeal joint using the Mitek micro GII suture anchor.

Background: The mechanism of injury in dorsal dislocation is usually a hyperextensive stress simultaneous with some degree of longitudinal compression. Operative treatment is indicated for those unstable and reduction is not achieved. We report the surgical outcome of volar plate arthroplasty of the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint using the Mitek Micro GII suture anchor.
