Özet
Objective: The hands are one of the most conspicuous parts of the body. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the bones that comprise the hands and their aesthetic importance in terms of the Fibonacci series. Material and Methods: In this study, which was designed retrospectively, 123 digital hand roentgenograms of adult patients were reviewed. Each finger was measured in terms of metacarpal, proximal, middle, and distal phalangeal lengths by using a digital caliper. The proximal phalangeal length was subtracted from the sum of the lengths of the middle and distal phalanges and the metacarpal length was subtracted from sum of the lengths of the proximal and middle phalanges, to investigate the conformity to Fibonacci sequence. The Bland-Altman method was used to evaluate the measurements. Results: There is a mathematical harmony between all finger bones in terms of the Fibonacci sequence. The first, second, and fifth metacarpals conform to the Fibonacci sequence; however the third and fourth metacarpals do not. Conclusion: It can be easily proven that all of the bones that form fingers are in accordance with the Fibonacci sequence. These results convince us that Fibonacci sequence can be used for the reconstruction of human hand after a serious trauma or congenital anomalies.
