The lower-profile 3-dimensional metacarpal plate fixation demonstrated greater stability for early postoperative resistance than the thicker 2-dimensional fixation, whereas the smaller size and lower profile of the 3-dimensional plates potentially reduces soft tissue stripping, implant prominence, and risk of extensor tendon irritation.
