Abstract
Preview Hand injuries and disorders constitute a major cause of disability and time lost from work. Viewed as relatively minor, they are often neglected until permanent disability and restriction of function occur. The first physician to evaluate and treat an injured hand often determines the ultimate outcome of the patient's hand function. Skillful diagnosis and appropriate treatment are necessary. Neglected or mistreated injury may result in significant impairment in a person whose livelihood depends on the skillful, integrated function of both hands.
