Abstract
Our study provides a robust projection of annual incidence rates for hand fractures because we were able to review all occurrences of a hand fracture within a population base of approximately 4 million people over a 5-year period. Our study also allowed for the examination of how age, gender, season, and geographic location influenced hand fracture incidence rates within a large, diverse population.
