Abstract
We show that the homotopy type of a finite oriented Poincar\'{e} 4-complex is
determined by its quadratic 2-type provided its fundamental group is finite and
has a dihedral Sylow 2-subgroup. By combining with results of Hambleton-Kreck
and Bauer, this applies in the case of smooth oriented 4-manifolds whose
fundamental group is a finite subgroup of SO(3). An important class of examples
are elliptic surfaces with finite fundamental group.
