Abstract
Three hundred randomly selected references collected from the Journal of Hand Surgery (American Volume), the Journal of Hand Surgery (British and European Volume), and the British Journal of Plastic Surgery, spanning the years 1998 to 2002, were evaluated for citation errors. Forty-four citations across all journals contained errors (14.6 per cent). None of the errors made the cited article impossible to retrieve. Ten of the forty-four inaccuracies were incorrect final page numbers.
