    AbstractA 20-year-old right hand-dominant male military cadet presented to the direct-access physical therapy clinic complaining of pain and swelling of his right hand, which was injured while competing in a team handball match the day before. Due to suspicion of a third metacarpal fracture, fluoroscopy was performed on the cadet's hand in the physical therapy clinic, and an apparent oblique fracture was noted. Confirmatory radiographs were ordered and the cadet was referred for orthopaedic consultation. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2020;50(1):44. doi:10.2519/jospt.2020.9034.
