Central slip avulsion fracture with volar subluxation of PIP joint (a, b). The mini-hook plate captured the dorsal avulsed fragment, and the joint was reduced (c, d). Plain radiography 3 years post-operation revealing that osseous fragment was well united and that there was no metal failure or joint subluxation (e, f). The total range of PIP joint motion was 95%, and the pinching strength was 90% compared to the values of the same contralateral joint (g, h)
