Corrective osteotomy of the distal radius: dorsal or volar approach, closing or opening wedge.
The radiological outcomes of 31 corrective osteotomies for malunion of the distal radius were assessed. The procedure re-established normal anatomy in the majority of cases. There was no significant difference in outcome between the dorsal and the palmar approach, but more secondary procedures for hardware removal were necessary with the dorsal approach.
متن کاملOpening- and Closing-Wedge Distal Femoral Osteotomy
BACKGROUND Lateral compartment osteoarthritis of the knee can be a challenging pathology in the younger, active population due to limited treatment options and high patient expectations. Distal femoral osteotomy (DFO) has been reported to be a potential treatment option. PURPOSE To perform a systematic review on the survival, outcomes, and complications of DFO for treatment of genu valgum wit...
متن کاملCorrection osteotomy of distal radius malunion stabilised with dorsal locking plates without grafting
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the results of our correction osteotomies of distal radial malunions without a bone graft. Eleven consecutive patients (mean age 52 years, range 18-71) were treated. A dorsal approach was utilised to perform an opening-wedge osteotomy which then was stabilised with two dorsal columnar plates without filling the osteotomy gap. All patients went on to rad...
متن کاملCorrective Osteotomy for Intra-Articular Distal Humerus Malunion
Background: An intra-articular distal humerus malunion can be disabling. To improve function, reduce pain and/ or prevent further secondary osteoarthritis an intra-articular corrective osteotomy can be considered. Herein we present the indications, practical guidelines for pre- operative planning and surgical technique. Subsequently, we provide long-term results in a small series. Meth...
متن کاملReverse wedge osteotomy of the distal radius in Madelung's deformity.
Madelung's deformity results from a growth defect in the palmar and ulnar region of the distal radius. It presents as an excessively inclined radial joint surface, inducing "spontaneous progressive palmar subluxation of the wrist". The principle of reverse wedge osteotomy (RWO) consists in the reorientation of the radial joint surface by taking a circumferential bone wedge, the base of which is...
