Advantages involve stable fixation facilitating early surgical rehabilitation and higher fracture union rates, without increased morbidity. We aimed to compare the results of fixation of metacarpal fractures with headless cannulated screws towards antegrade or retrograde on pain, function and quality of life in patients with metacarpal fractures.
