Abstract
them just had fluid accumulation and no foreign body granuloma. This rarity of the foreign body granuloma formation makes our case worthy of report. In conclusion, although bioabsorbable implants have many advantages, we suggest paying considerable attention to their disadvantages such as their low strength and tendency to cause foreign body reactions. Moreover, hands require the ability to perform a large number of motions and need to have more extensive weight-bearing features than other body sites; therefore, bioabsorbable implants might not be appropriate for use in the treatment of hand fractures. In conclusion, we suggest that a foreign body granuloma ought to be considered in the differential diagnosis of any mass occurring after the use of bioabsorbable implants in the treatment of metacarpal fractures.
