BackgroundThe surgical treatment of metadiaphyseal distal radius fractures may be difficult due to the associated articular or periarticular extension that limits standard fixation techniques. Longer distal radius volar locking plates allow stable fixation of the distal fragments while providing standard plate fixation in the proximal radius. We hypothesize that this plating technique allows adequate fixation to both the distal radius and metadiaphyseal fragments. The purpose of the study is to describe the outcomes, radiographic parameters, secondary surgeries, and complication rate with this device.MethodsA retrospective chart review was conducted on adult patients with a distal radius fracture and metadiaphyseal involvement treated with a volar, distally locked plate. All patients were followed up for radiographic union, with a mean time of 219 days (range 38–575). Fracture patterns, outcomes of range of motion, grip strength, and complications, as well as injury, post open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), and finally, healed radiographic parameters were recorded.ResultsTwenty patients with 21 fractures were included. At union, mean radiographic parameters were the following: volar tilt of 8°, radial inclination of 27°, radial height of 14 mm, and ulnar variance of −1 mm. The mean final range of motion was 52° flexion, 50° extension, 68° pronation, and 66° supination. Complications included one infection and one plate removal. Four patients developed a nonunion requiring secondary procedures. There were no incidents of hardware failure or adhesions requiring tenolysis.ConclusionDistally locked long volar plating for metadiaphyseal distal radius fractures is a safe and effective treatment option for these complex fracture patterns allowing anatomic restoration of the radial shaft and distal radius. 相似文献

IntroductionCareful distal locking screw insertion into the subchondral zone is necessary to obtain proper mechanical strength of unstable distal radius fractures using volar locking plating. However, subchondral zone screw insertion increases the risk of intra-articular screw penetration, which may remain unrecognized during surgery due to complex distal radial anatomy. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of fluoroscopic guidance with a 45° supination oblique view technique for placing distal screws into the subchondral zone during volar locking plating for unstable distal radius fractures and to explore the factors associated with poor screw placement.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed 171 wrists of 169 patients treated with variable-angle volar locking plates for unstable radius fractures. The subchondral zone was defined as the metaphyseal area within 4 mm of the articular margin of the distal radius. The location of the distal locking screws and radiographic parameters, including the teardrop angle, were measured using computed tomography scans and X-rays. Clinical and radiographic factors were examined to determine their possible associations with screw placement failure.ResultsOf 581 distal screws inserted, 559 screws (96.2%) were inserted into the subchondral zone and 17 screws into the metaphyseal zone (2.9%). Five screws (0.7%) in three wrists showed intra-articular placement: four screws were placed into the lunate fossa and one into the scaphoid fossa. These three wrists also exhibited significantly reduced teardrop angles. The distal screws were significantly closer to the joint line in the lunate fossa than the scaphoid fossa (1.9 ± 0.9 mm vs. 2.8 ± 1 mm, P < 0.000).ConclusionThe 45° supination oblique view technique is a useful fluoroscopic guiding technique for accurate and safe distal screw placement in the subchondral zone in volar locking plate fixation for distal radial fractures. However, a decreased teardrop angle or extended lunate fossa should be corrected before distal screw insertion to avoid intra-articular screw placement. 相似文献

Aim of the study
To determine the relation of the superficial radial nerve to bony land-marks and to identify a safe zone for K-wire pinning in the distal radius.Method
The superficial radial nerve was dissected in sixteen upper extremities of preserved cadavers.Results
We found that the superficial radial nerve emerged from under brachioradialis at a mean distance of 8.45 (±1.22) cm proximal to the radial styloid. The mean distance from the first major branching point of the superficial radial nerve to the radial styloid were 4.8 ± 0.4 cm.All branches of the superficial radial nerve were found to lie in the radial half of an isosceles triangle formed by the radial styloid, Lister''s tubercle and the exit point of the superficial radial nerve. There is an elliptical area just proximal to the Lister''s tubercle. This area is not crossed by any tendons or nerve. It is bounded by the extensor carpiradialis brevis, extensor pollicis longus.Conclusion
Pinning through the radial styloid is unsafe as the branches of the superficial radial nerve passé close to it. The ulnar half of the isosceles triangle is safe regarding the nerve. The elliptical zone just proximal to the Lister''s tubercle is safe regarding the tendons and nerve. 相似文献5.
Background
There is an increasing trend for managing dorsally angulated distal radial fractures with locked volar plate fixation in fractures that may have previously been managed with percutaneous Kirschner wire (K-wire) fixation. There has been no prospective randomised trial comparing locked volar plate fixation with percutaneous K-wire fixation. In the absence of data guiding management with regard to clinical effectiveness, we have examined the cost of each technique.Methods
Patients’ details were collected retrospectively between June 2007 and June 2008. Ten consecutive patients who underwent percutaneous K-wire fixation for a distal radius fracture and the 10 who were treated by locked volar plate fixation were identified and their hospital notes retrieved. All patients had a closed extra-articular distal radial fracture with dorsal angulation. The duration and type of operation, including number of wires or screws used, were recorded.Results
The mean age of the patients was 54 years for the locking plate group and 34 years for the percutaneous K-wire group. The mean time taken to perform percutaneous K-wire fixation with an average of two K-wires was 56 min. The mean time for applying a volar locked plate was 121 min. The cost of a pack of 10 K-wires was £3. The total cost of a standard volar locking plate and screws used was £787.Discussion
In the absence of research comparing clinical end points, cost must play a major factor in determining the type of operation offered. A 56-min operation to percutaneously fix a distal radial fracture with K-wires costs £662. This compares to a cost of £2212 for a 121-min locked volar plate fixation. There is a calculated difference of £1549 and 65 min.Conclusion
With use of a locked volar plate for patients under the age of 70 years there is a loss of £652 for the Trust with the present NHS tariffs. 相似文献6.

ObjectivesAlthough corrective osteotomy with volar or dorsal plate fixation can treat malunion of distal radius fractures, each has its own disadvantages. Little is currently known on whether dorsal fixation combined with volar fixation may further improve recovery. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical value of corrective osteotomy combined with volar and dorsal plate fixation in patients with malunion of intra‐articular fractures of the distal radius.MethodsSeventeen patients with malunion of intra‐articular fractures of the distal radius treated with corrective osteotomy with volar and dorsal plate fixation from 1 January 2016 to 31 November 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The enrolled patients included seven males and 10 females with an average age of 54.9 years (range: 36–70 years). The radiographic parameters, including the radial length, the radial inclination angle, the ulnar variance, and the volar tilt, as well as clinical outcomes, including wrist and forearm range of motion (ROM), grip strength, the Mayo Modified Wrist Score (MMWS), and the disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) score, were examined at 3 months and 18 months after operation and compared with the preoperative state. The paired t‐test was used for statistical analysis.ResultsAfter corrective osteotomy combined with volar and dorsal plate fixation, all included patients were followed up for 18 months, and there was no surgical site infection. Patients reported postoperative pain due to the irritation of extensor tendon (two cases) and wrist arthritis (two cases). The radial length increased from 1.34 ± 2.34 mm to 9.25 ± 2.65 mm and 9.03 ± 2.47 mm at 3 months and 18 months postoperatively (t = 8.257, 7.954, all p < 0.05). The radial inclination angle increased from 6.45° ± 0.76° to 19.35° ± 3.43° and 19.03° ± 3.63° at 3 and 18 months (t = 12.517, 12.122, all p < 0.05). The ulnar variance decreased from 5.11 ± 0.23 mm to 1.32 ± 0.31 mm and 1.54 ± 0.62 mm at 3 and 18 months (t = 4.214, 4.895, all p < 0.05). The volar tilt was corrected from 4.47° ± 3.46° to 15.51° ± 2.72° and 14.12° ± 2.41°, respectively (t = 11.247, 10.432, all p < 0.05). Moreover, wrist ROM increased from 42.53° ± 8.99° to 98.70° ± 7.61° and 101.24° ± 7.66° (t = 41.433, 46.627, all p < 0.05), while forearm ROM was increased from 94.82° ± 6.54° to 134.47° ± 5.06° and 137.24° ± 5.52°, respectively (t = 31.507, 32.584, all p < 0.05). Similarly, grip strength, MMWS, and DASH were also remarkably improved. There were no significant differences in the wrist and forearm ROM, grip strength, MMWS, and DASH scores between follow‐up at 3 and 18 months (all p > 0.05).ConclusionsCorrective osteotomy with volar and dorsal fixation can improve recovery of volar tilt, relieve wrist pain, restore wrist and forearm function, and increase grip strength of patients with malunion of intra‐articular fractures of the distal radius. 相似文献

Introduction8-10% of all Ulnar styloid fractures (USF) accompanying distal radius fractures are addressed surgically. The surgical fixation has to counteract forces of translation and rotation acting on the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ). The different technics used were never compared biomechanically. Our study aims to compare the effects of different techniques of USF fixation on the forearm rotation and the dorsal-palmar (DP)-translation of the DRUJ.Material and methods9 forearm specimens were mounted on a custom testing system. Load was applied for Pronosupination and DP-translation with the forearm placed in neutral position, pronation and supination. The positional change of the DRUJ was measured using a MicroScribe. Six different, sequential conditions were tested in the same specimen: intact, USF and 4 repair techniques (2 K-wire, tension band wiring (TBW), headless compression screw, suture anchor).ResultsThe USF significantly increased DP-translation and pronosupination compared to the intact condition. The DP-translation in neutral was reduced significantly with all four techniques compared to the USF condition. TBW and suture anchor also showed a significant difference to the K-wire fixation. In supination only the TBW and suture anchor significantly decreased DP-Translation. The rotational stability of the DRUJ was only restored by the K-wire fixation and the TBW.ConclusionsAll four USF repair techniques partially restored translational stability; however, only K-wire fixation and TBW techniques restored rotational stability. TBW was biomechanically superior to the other techniques as it restored translational stability and rotational stability. 相似文献

Introduction Extensor tendon irritation and attritional tendon ruptures are potentially serious complications after open reduction and
internal fixation of distal radius fractures. These complications are well recognized after dorsal plating of distal radii;
and these are now being reported after errant screw placement during volar fixed-angle plating. Intraoperative detection of
improper screw placement is critical, as corrective action can be taken before completion of the operative procedure. The
purpose of this study was to define the extensor tendon compartments at risk secondary to dorsal screw penetration and to
compare pronation and supination fluoroscopic images with standard lateral images in demonstrating dorsal screw prominence
during volar locked plating.
Methods Eight fresh-frozen human cadaveric upper extremities underwent fixation with a volar, fixed-angle distal radius locked plate
(Wright Medical Technology, Arlington, TN). Three fluoroscopic views (lateral, supinated, and pronated) followed by dorsal
wrist dissections were compared to determine accuracy in detecting dorsal screw prominence and extensor tendon compartment
violation. Subsequently, screws measuring 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10(mm longer than the measured depths were sequentially inserted
into each distal locking screw, with each image deemed either "in" (completely inside the bone) or "out" (prominent screw
tip dorsally-would typically be exchanged for a shorter screw intraoperatively).
Results The radial most distal locking screw (position 1) violated either the first (25%) or second (75%) extensor tendon compartments.
The average screw prominence required for radiographic detection was: 6.5(mm for lateral views and 2(mm for supinated views.
Pronated views did not identify prominent screws. Screws occupying plate position 2 consistently entered Lister's tubercle,
with 5/8 exiting the apex and 3/8 exiting the radial base. The average screw prominences for radiographic detection were:
2.75(mm-lateral views and 3.0(mm-supinated views. Although the screws entered the second dorsal compartment, they did not
encroach upon either of the tendons. Screws occupying plate position 3 violated the third extensor tendon compartment in 7/8
specimens with 1/8 exiting the Ulan base of Lister's tubercle. The average screw prominences for radiographic detection were:
3.5(mm-lateral views and 2.5(mm-pronated views. Supinated views did not identify prominent hardware. Screws occupying plate
position 4 all violated the IV dorsal extensor compartment-2/8 screws were noted to tent the posterior interosseous nerve.
The average screw prominences required for radiographic detection were: 4.0(mm-lateral views and 2.5(mm-pronated views. The
supinated views did not identify prominent screws.
Conclusions Volar fixed-angle plating has shown great promise in the advancement of distal radius fracture management. We have seen in
our referral practices and in the literature an increase in the number of extensor tendon complications arising from unrecognized
dorsally prominent screws, pegs, or tines. Standard PA and lateral radiographs cannot adequately visualize screw position
and length secondary to the complex geometry of the dorsal cortex. We believe this study supports the routine application
of intraoperative, oblique pronosupination fluoroscopic imaging for enhanced confirmation of distal locking screw position
and length. 相似文献

Background
Distal radius fractures are common, costly, and increasing in incidence. Percutaneous K-wire fixation and volar locking plates are two of the most commonly used surgical treatments for unstable dorsally displaced distal radius fractures. However, there is uncertainty regarding which of these treatments is superior.Questions/purposes
We performed a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials to determine whether patients treated with volar locking plates (1) achieved better function (2) attained better wrist motion, (3) had better radiographic outcomes, and (4) had fewer complications develop than did patients treated with K-wires for dorsally displaced distal radius fractures.Methods
We performed a comprehensive search of MEDLINE (inception to 2014, October Week 2), EMBASE (inception to 2014, Week 42), and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials to identify relevant randomized controlled trials; we supplemented these searches with manual searches. We included studies of extraarticular and intraarticular distal radius fractures. Adjunctive external fixation was acceptable as long as the intent was to use only K-wires where possible and external fixation was used in less than 25% of the procedures. We considered a difference in the DASH scores of 10 as the minimal clinically important difference. We performed quality assessment with the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool and evaluated the strength of recommendations using the Grades of Recommendation, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. Seven randomized trials with a total of 875 participants were included in the meta-analysis.Results
Patients treated with volar locking plates had slightly better function than did patients treated with K-wires as measured by their DASH scores at 3 months (mean difference [MD], 7.5; 95% CI, 4.4–10.6; p < 0.001) and 12 months (MD, 3.8; 95% CI, 1.2–6.3; p = 0.004). Neither of these differences exceeded the a priori-determined threshold for clinical importance (10 points). There was a small early advantage in flexion and supination in the volar locking plate group (3.7° [95% CI, 0.3°–7.1°; p = 0.04] and 4.1° [95% CI, 0.6°–7.6°; p = 0.02] greater, respectively) at 3 months, but not at later followups (6 or 12 months). There were no differences in radiographic outcomes (volar tilt, radial inclination, and radial height) between the two interventions. Superficial wound infection was more common in patients treated with K-wires (8.2% versus 3.2%; RR = 2.6; p = 0.001), but otherwise no difference in complication rates was found.Conclusions
Despite the small number of studies and the limitations inherent in a meta-analysis, we found that volar locking plates show better DASH scores at 3- and 12-month followups compared with K-wires for displaced distal radius fractures in adults; however, these differences were small and unlikely to be clinically important. Further research is required to better delineate if there are specific radiographic, injury, or patient characteristics that may benefit from volar locking plates in the short term and whether there are any differences in long-term outcomes and complications.Level of Evidence

PURPOSE: To determine whether volar fixed-angle plate fixation with a new plate system could be used to treat dorsally unstable distal radius fractures. We hypothesized that volar fixed-angle plate fixation with or without radial styloid fixed-angle plate fixation would provide sufficient rigidity to allow early active range of motion without compromising fracture reduction. The initiation of early active motion may improve functional outcomes. METHODS: A retrospective review was conducted of one institution's initial experience using a new volar fixed-angle plate system to treat dorsally displaced intra-articular and extra-articular distal radius fractures. Thirty-two fractures in 32 patients with dorsally displaced distal radius fractures were treated with a volar fixed-angle plate with or without a radial styloid fixed-angle plate. Fractures were classified using the AO classification. Radiographic parameters on preoperative, postoperative, and final follow-up radiographs were compared. The time to initiation of active range of motion was determined. Final follow-up ranges of motion and complications were reported. Finally, comparisons were made between the 23 fractures treated with a volar plate alone and the 9 fractures treated with a volar plate and a radial styloid plate. RESULTS: The average follow-up period was 13 months. Two thirds of the fractures were intra-articular. Average loss of reduction from initial postoperative to final follow-up radiographs was 0 degrees of volar tilt, 1 degrees of radial inclination, and 0 mm of radial length. Active wrist and forearm ranges of motion were initiated at an average of 11 days after surgery. The final follow-up flexion-extension and pronation-supination arcs averaged 112 degrees and 151 degrees , respectively. The 9 fractures treated with the combination of a fixed-angle volar plate with a fixed-angle radial styloid plate had greater initial displacement than did the 23 fractures treated with a volar plate alone. Otherwise, differences between the 2 groups were not significant. Only 1 radial styloid plate became symptomatic. CONCLUSIONS: Volar plate fixation using a new fixed-angle plate system successfully can stabilize dorsally unstable distal radius fractures. Early active range of motion was facilitated without compromising fracture reduction. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To retrospectively compare the results of immobilization of the forearm in supination with the results of tension band fixation of the ulnar styloid in 35 patients with distal radius fractures, fracture of the base of the ulnar styloid, and distal radioulnar joint instability treated with external fixation. METHODS: Thirty-five patients with fractures of the distal radius, fracture of the base of the ulnar styloid, and unstable distal radioulnar joint had external fixation with adjunctive percutaneous pins and allograft bone to reduce and stabilize the distal radius fracture anatomically. Only those patients with an associated ulnar styloid base fracture displaced over 2 mm with gross distal radioulnar joint instability relative to the contralateral wrist were included in this study. Group 1 consisted of patients in whom the ulnar styloid base fracture was treated with conventional tension band wiring techniques. Group 2 patients were treated with a supplemental outrigger from the external fixator to the ulna and locked in 60 degrees of forearm supination. Groups 1 and 2 had an average follow-up period of 40 and 36 months, respectively. RESULTS: Group 2 had significantly better supination than group 1. In terms of functional outcome it was found that there was no significant difference for the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand and the Gartland and Werley scores between the 2 treatment groups. There was a lower rate of complications and fewer secondary procedures were required in group 2. The incidence of distal ulna resection was 4 of the 35 patients (2 patients in each group). CONCLUSIONS: Our results indicate that patients in whom the ulnar styloid can be reduced and maintained in supination can be treated effectively with fixed supination outrigger external fixation. This method resulted in a statistically significant improvement in supination and a lower rate of distal radioulnar joint complications, and it required fewer secondary procedures. 相似文献

Distal radius fracture is usually associated with ulnar styloid fracture. Whether to fix the ulnar styloid or not remains a surgical dilemma as some surgeons believe that their repair is imperative while others feel that they should be managed conservatively. This prospective study involved 47 patients with unilateral fracture of the distal radius who met the inclusion criterion and underwent open reduction and internal fixation with volar locking plates; 28 patients (12 males and females = 16) had an associated ulnar styloid fracture (Group A) while 19 (7 males; 12 females) did not have any ulnar styloid fracture (Group B). At the time of final evaluation both the groups were compared clinically by measuring the grip strength and range of motion around the wrist and the radiologically by measuring radial angle, radial length, volar angle and ulnar variance. Subjective assessment was done using DASH score and final assessment using Demerit point system of Saito. In Group A, average time for consolidation was 9.4 weeks, 17 patients developed non-union of the ulnar styloid, average DASH scores was 4.4 and according to Demerit point system of Saito, there were 78.5 % excellent, 17.9 % good and 3.6 % fair results; there were 2 cases of loss of reduction out of which one had persistent ulnar sided wrist pain. In Group B the average time for consolidation was 10.2 weeks, average DASH score was 3.8.and Demerit point system of Saito yielded 78.9 % excellent, 15.8 % good and 5.3 % fair results. There was one case of loss of reduction and one case of carpal tunnel syndrome which was managed conservatively. Both groups attained excellent range of motion, grip strength and well maintained the post operative radiological parameters. The comparison of clinico-radiological parameters in both groups was found to be statistically insignificant. To conclude, ulnar styloid fracture or its non union does not affect the outcome of an adequately fixed distal end radius fracture. We urge caution in electing operative treatment of non-united fracture of the ulnar styloid until better scientific report for treatment of pain associated with these fracture is available. 相似文献

BackgroundProblems associated with hallux valgus deformity correction using Kirschner-wire (K-wire) fixation include pin pullout and loss of stability. These complications are pronounced in the osteopenic bone, and few reports have focused on pin versus screw fixation. We examined the use of additional screw fixation to avoid these problems. The aim of this study was to compare outcomes of K-wire fixation (KW) and a combined K-wire and screw fixation (KWS).MethodsTwo groups with hallux valgus deformity, who were treated with a proximal chevron metatarsal osteotomy (PCMO), were compared based on the fixation method used. The KW group included 117 feet of 98 patients, and the KWS group included 56 feet of 40 patients. Clinically, the preoperative and final follow-up visual analog scale (VAS) pain score, American Orthopedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) hallux score, and patient satisfaction score were evaluated. Radiographically, hallux valgus angle (HVA) and intermetatarsal angle (IMA) were measured.ResultsThe mean VAS score decreased from 6.3 preoperatively to 1.6 postoperatively in the KW group and from 5.7 preoperatively to 0.5 postoperatively in the KWS group (p < 0.001). The mean AOFAS scores of the KW and KWS groups improved from 59.4 and 58.2, respectively, to 88.9 and 95.3, respectively (p < 0.001). Eighty-five percent in the KW group and 93% in the KWS group were satisfied with surgery. Clinical differences were not significant. The mean HVAs decreased from 34.7° to 9.1° in the KW group and from 38.5° to 9.2° in the KWS group (p < 0.001). The mean IMA decreased from 14.5° (range, 11.8°–17.2°) to 6.4° (range, 2.7°–10.1°) in the KW group and from 18.0° (range, 14.8°–21.2°) to 5.3° (range, 2.5°–8.1°) in the KWS group (p < 0.001). When IMA values at the 3-month postoperative and the final follow-up were compared, the IMA was significantly increased only in the KW group (p < 0.001) and no difference was found in the KWS group (p = 0.280).ConclusionsWe found a statistically significant difference in the decrease in IMA between the 2 groups. We recommend the combined pin and screw fixation in PCMO to enhance fixation stability and prevent potential hallux valgus correction loss. 相似文献

BackgroundTriangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) injury is common in distal radius fractures. The purpose of this study was to compare the conservative and surgical treatments of TFCC injury of the wrist associated with distal radius fractures.MethodsA retrospective study was conducted on 39 patients who received treatment for TFCC injury with distal radius fractures. All patients were treated using a volar locking plate for distal radius fractures. Twenty-six patients who received conservative treatment for TFCC through long arm splinting were classified into group 1, and 13 patients who received surgical treatment for TFCC were classified into group 2. The splint was maintained for 6 weeks in both groups. For clinical evaluation, the range of motion (ROM) of the wrist joint, patient-rated wrist evaluation (PRWE) score, Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) score, and grip strength were measured. Distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) stability was evaluated through a stress load test and graded between grade 0 and 3 intraoperatively after fixation and at the final follow-up.ResultsIn group 1, the average DASH score was 11.1 ± 4.4, the average PRWE score was 10.2 ± 4.6, the grip strength was 89.4% relative to the unaffected side, the average ROM of the wrist joint was 65° ± 7.0° for extension, 51.5° ± 8.1° for flexion, 86° ± 5.1° for supination, and 85° ± 5.2° for pronation, and DRUJ stability at the final follow-up was grade 0 in 58.62%, grade 1 in 31.03%, grade 2 in 10.34%, and grade 3 in 0%. In group 2, the average DASH score was 13 ± 5.0, the average PRWE score was 12.4 ± 3.7, the grip strength was 87.3% relative to the unaffected side, and the average ROM of the wrist joint was 60° ± 9.8° for extension, 53.1° ± 7.0° for flexion, 85° ± 5.3° for supination, and 86.8° ± 4.5° for pronation. At the final follow-up, DRUJ stability was grade 0 in 66.67%, grade 1 in 25%, grade 2 in 8.3%, and grade 3 in 0%. The 2 groups showed no statistically significant differences in DASH score, PREW score, grip strength, ROM, and final follow-up DRUJ stability.ConclusionsThere were no statistically significant differences in the clinical outcomes between the surgical and conservative treatment groups. Therefore, when normal radiological indices are achieved after treatment of distal radius fractures, DRUJ stability can be obtained by conservative treatment. 相似文献

We developed a new arthroscopic-assisted drilling method through the radius in a distal-to-proximal direction for osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the elbow. Only 1 drill hole is created in the radius by use of a single 1.8-mm K-wire inserted from the shaft of the radius approximately 3 cm distal to the humeroradial joint into the joint, which allows drilling of the entire OCD lesion. The forearm is supinated so that the tip of the K-wire is at the lateral side of the lesion in the humeral capitellum, and drilling is performed at 30° elbow flexion. The flexion angle is changed from 30° to 60° to 90° to 120° while maintaining supination, to drill in 4 sites (1 site for each angle of flexion) of the lateral side of the OCD lesion. Next, we move the forearm from supination to pronation so that the tip of the K-wire is placed in the medial side of the lesion in the humeral capitellum, and as with the lateral side, drilling is performed in 4 sites. With this technique, the entire OCD lesion can be vertically drilled under arthroscopic guidance. This method is minimally invasive, and an early return to sports could be possible. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To evaluate rotational deformity in malunited fractures of the distal radius and its effect on forearm rotation. METHODS: Thirty-seven patients with a symptomatic malunion of the distal radius (25 with dorsal angulation and 12 with volar angulation) were assessed for rotational deformity of the distal fragment. Spiral computed tomographic scans were taken of both wrists. Rotational deformity was evaluated by comparing the radial torsion angle of the injured and uninjured sides according to Frahm. Multivariable regression analyses were used to identify the radiologic parameter that had the most important influence on forearm rotation. RESULTS: Of the 37 patients, 23 showed a rotational deformity of the distal radius. In both dorsally and volarly angulated malunions, pronation and supination deformities were identified. There was a tendency toward more pronation deformities with volar malunion. Volar angulated malunion with a rotational deformity of less than 10 degrees showed the smallest amount of forearm supination. Losses of pronation-supination did not correlate with the amount of rotational deformity. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that rotational deformity is common with angulated malunions of the distal radius. The effect on forearm rotation should not be overestimated. Pretreatment computed tomographic scanning of both wrists to identify and measure malrotation of the distal radius may be helpful to improve the outcome after corrective osteotomy. 相似文献

Bilateral traumatic dislocation of the distal radioulnar joint, ulna dorsal: case report and review of the literature 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Bilateral dislocation of the distal radioulnar joint seems not to have been reported in the literature. This is a report of a 22-year-old man successfully treated with closed reduction and immobilization in long arm casts. Limited forearm rotation and wrist pain after a twisting injury are typical findings. In ulna dorsal dislocation the patient's forearm is locked in pronation. In ulna volar dislocation the wrist appears narrow and the forearm is locked in supination. The mechanism of injury for dorsal dislocations is hyperpronation; for volar dislocations it is hypersupination. Dislocation of the distal radioulnar joint injures the triangular disk and/or fractures the ulnar styloid. Suspicion is important in making the diagnosis. Fifty per cent of unilateral cases reported in the literature were missed initially or were diagnosed late. The acute case is easily treated by closed reduction under local anesthesia and immobilization in a long arm cast. Treatment of the chronic dislocation includes various soft tissue reconstructions or resection of the distal ulna depending on the degree of arthrosis. 相似文献

Background
Extensor tendon irritation and attritional tendon ruptures are well-recognized complications, secondary to dorsal screw penetration following volar plating of the distal radius. Lateral and oblique views of the wrist have limited ability to detect such penetration, particularly at the ulnar side of the Lister's tubercle. In this report, we conducted an intraoperative fluoroscopic study to determine dorsal screw penetration in various positions of the wrist/forearm and compared the standard radiographic views (lateral, supination, and pronation views) with dorsal tangential view of the wrist. 相似文献20.

AIM: To define the optimum safe angle of use for an eccentrically aligned proximal interlocking screw (PIS) for intramedullary nailing (IMN).METHODS: Thirty-six dry cadaver ulnas were split into two equal pieces sagitally. The following points were identified for each ulna: the deepest point of the incisura olecrani (A), the point where perpendicular lines from A and the ideal IMN entry point (D) are intersected (C) and a point at 3.5 mm (2 mm safety distance from articular surface + 1.5 mm radius of PIS) posterior from point A (B). We calculated the angle of screws inserted from point D through to point B in relation to D-C and B-C. In addition, an eccentrically aligned screw was inserted at a standard 20° through the anterior cortex of the ulna in each bone and the articular surface was observed macroscopically for any damage.RESULTS: The mean A-C distance was 9.6 mm (mean ± SD, 9.600 ± 0.763 mm), A-B distance was 3.5 mm, C-D distance was 12.500 mm (12.500 ± 1.371 mm) and the mean angle was 25.9° (25.9° ± 2.0°). Lack of articular damage was confirmed macroscopically in all bones after the 20.0° eccentrically aligned screws were inserted. Intramedullary nail fixation systems have well known biological and biomechanical advantages for osteosynthesis. However, as well as these well-known advantages, IMN fixation of the ulna has some limitations. Some important limitations are related to the proximal interlocking of the ulna nail. The location of the PIS itself limits the indications for which intramedullary systems can be selected as an implant for the ulna. The new PIS design, where the PIS is aligned 20°eccentrically to the nail body, allows fixing of fractures even at the level of the olecranon without disturbing the joint. It also allows the eccentrically aligned screw to be inserted in any direction except through the proximal radio-ulnar joint. Taking into consideration our results, we now use a 20° eccentrically aligned PIS for all ulnas. In our results, the angle required to insert the PIS was less than 20° for only one bone. However, 0.7° difference corresponds to placement of the screw only 0.2 mm closer to the articular surface. As we assume 2.0 mm to be a safe distance, a placement of the screw 0.2 mm closer to the articular surface may not produce any clinical symptoms.CONCLUSION: The new PIS may give us the opportunity to interlock IMN without articular damage and confirmation by fluoroscopy if the nail is manufactured with a PIS aligned at a 20.0° fixed angle in relation to the IMN. 相似文献
