Abstract
Arthroscopic assistance in the management of articular fractures should be the standard of treatment because of the numerous advantages afforded by the technique. Arthroscopic evaluation of the entire joint as well as fracture reduction are superior to that obtained by radiography, fluoroscopy, or direct observation. Condylar fractures and third carpal slab fractures are the most commonly performed procedures with the technique but simple phalangeal fractures, mid-body sesamoid fractures, and other injuries can be managed similarly. The arthroscopic evaluation should be combined with intraoperative radiographic/fluoroscopic imaging of the internal fixation.
