The pre-drilled hole method in the freehand technique for ulnar shortening osteotomy : a case series study.
Ulnar shortening is a common procedure for treating ulnar wrist pain of various causes. Many tools and devices had been reported in the literature to facilitate the procedure, but not all are universally available. Freehand technique is still useful in clinical practice. Here we present a pre-drilled hole method to improve the outcomes of the freehand technique. From 2008 to 2012, a total of 51...
متن کاملStacked-blade, single-cut, ulnar-shortening osteotomy.
The authors reviewed a 10-year consecutive series of ulnar-shortening osteotomies using a freehand, single oblique cut with 2 or 3 stacked saw blades. Twenty-one patients (23 wrists) with chronic ulnar impaction syndrome (mean age, 45 years; range, 16 to 73 years) demonstrated an average preoperative ulnar variance of +2.1 mm (range, 0.0 to 4.0 mm). An oblique osteotomy was performed in the dis...
متن کاملStep-cut distal ulnar-shortening osteotomy.
PURPOSE Several techniques for ulnar-shortening osteotomies have been described in recent years, reflecting the difficulties that sometimes are encountered in what seems to be a relatively simple procedure. We describe the use of a simple step-cut ulnar-shortening osteotomy stabilized with a lag screw and a palmarly placed 3.5-mm neutralization plate. METHODS Twenty-nine patients had the surg...
متن کاملUlnar shortening osteotomy in idiopathic ulnar impaction syndrome.
BACKGROUND Idiopathic ulnar impaction syndrome can be defined as a degenerative condition of the ulnar aspect of the wrist in patients with congenital or dynamic positive ulnar variance without a history of fracture or premature physeal arrest.

متن کاملA Comparison of Ulnar Shortening Osteotomy Alone Versus Combined Arthroscopic Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex Debridement and Ulnar Shortening Osteotomy for Ulnar Impaction Syndrome
BACKGROUND This study compared the results of patients treated for ulnar impaction syndrome using an ulnar shortening osteotomy (USO) alone with those treated with combined arthroscopic debridement and USO. METHODS The results of 27 wrists were reviewed retrospectively. They were divided into three groups: group A (USO alone, 10 cases), group B (combined arthroscopic debridement and USO, 9 ca...
