What is Hand Fracture Care?
Hand fracture care involves managing fractures of the bones in the hand and fingers caused by trauma or injury. This specialized care addresses not only the broken bones but also related soft tissue damage including tendons, nerves, and blood vessels. The goal is to restore maximum function, mobility, and aesthetics through surgical and non-surgical treatments. Hand fracture care is critical to prevent long-term complications such as stiffness, deformity, or loss of dexterity.
Common Indications
- Traumatic injuries causing fractures of metacarpals, phalanges, or carpal bones
- Sports injuries, falls, or road accidents involving hand trauma
- Complex fractures involving multiple bones or open wounds
- Associated tendon and nerve damage requiring repair
Techniques Used
- Closed reduction and immobilization using casts or splints for simple fractures
- Open reduction and internal fixation with plates, screws, or wires for complex fractures
- Microsurgery for precise repair of tendons, nerves, and blood vessels
- Bone grafting and soft tissue reconstruction in severe injuries
About the Surgery/Treatment
Hand fracture surgery is performed to realign broken bones and stabilize them for proper healing. The treatment may also involve repairing damaged tendons and nerves to restore function. Dr. Bharat Saxena uses advanced microsurgical techniques ensuring minimal tissue trauma and faster recovery.
Treatment Process

He provided clear instructions, made the admission process smooth, and took the time to answer all of our questions without ever making us feel rushed. His entire team was warm and welcoming, helping us feel at ease during a stressful situation. Most importantly, our son was treated with genuine kindness and care.

I had a very good experience with Dr. Bharat. The doctor explained the procedure clearly, post procedure results with honesty, answered all my questions patiently, and made me feel comfortable throughout the process. The surgery went smoothly, and I really appreciated the doctor's knowledge, care, and support.Posted on Google Jogendra Nath KunduTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an incredible experience with Dr. Bharat Saxena. My mother was dealing with a highly complex, recurrent post-APR perineal hernia (severe pelvic floor deformation) following her rectal cancer surgery. After a previous hernia surgery failed in Delhi, we were very anxious. I initially reached out to Dr. Saxena with her case, and he was super supportive right from the start. His quick and reassuring responses gave us the confidence to arrange my parents' travel from Odisha to Mumbai. During the consultation, he clearly explained the entire process and did not hesitate to perform the right, complex reconstructive surgery (a VRAM with a VY Gluteal flap), which is shown to have good success for this rare condition. As a plastic surgeon, his expertise in pelvic floor reconstruction is unmatched. Beyond his brilliant surgical skills, he is super approachable, incredibly supportive, and provides absolutely great post-surgery care. Thank you so much, Dr. Saxena, for taking on this complex case and giving our family peace of mind!Posted on Google Vineet UpadhyayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

The entire experience, from consultation to surgery, was handled with great professionalism, compassion, and reassurance. A special thanks to anaesthetic specialist Dr. Bhatti, whose calm and caring approach made us feel confident and comfortable throughout the procedure. The suture surgery was performed smoothly and with great precision, and the care shown towards our child and family meant a lot to us. Thank you so much.Posted on Google Kashish SinghTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
