Surgical Correction of Malunited Fractures of the Distal Radius.
Malunion of a distal radius fracture may result in functional limitation and pain. Reestablishing the geometry of the metaphysis and the alignment of the articular surface, restoring the relationship at the distal radioulnar joint, and respecting the soft-tissue envelope are elements of a successful reconstruction. The author describes a systematic approach to evaluation and treatment, includin...
متن کاملMidcarpal instability caused by malunited fractures of the distal radius.
Thirteen patients with malunited fractures of the distal radius developed symptoms of pain and instability of the midcarpal joint. In six cases, a recurrent voluntary midcarpal subluxation was also present during ulnar deviation. These symptoms were first noticed several weeks, and at times several months, after all immobilization for the treatment of the original fracture had been discontinued...
متن کاملForearm and distal radius fractures in children.
Pediatric forearm and distal radius fractures are common injuries. Resultant deformities are usually a product of indirect trauma involving angular loading combined with rotational displacement. Fractures are classified by location, completeness, angular and rotational deformity, and fragment displacement. Successful outcomes are based on restoration of adequate pronation and supination and, to...
متن کاملOutcome in corrective osteotomy for malunited distal radius fractures.
BACKGROUND This article reports outcome in osteotomy for malunion of distal radius fractures. MATERIAL AND METHODS We evaluated 12 patients with distal radius malunion (mean age 54), who were treated with corrective osteotomy. Wrist motion and grip strength were evaluated, along with examination of pre and post osteotomy radiographs. The indications for corrections were degree of deformity, l...
متن کاملThe Influence of Distal Radius Fracture Alignment on Forearm Rotation
INTRODUCTION: Fractures of the distal radius are the most common fracture of both adults and children. Distal radius fractures frequently heal with residual displacement and angulation with cast treatment and often cause distal radioulnar joint dysfunction including pain, decreased rotation, weakness, and arthritis. In spite of the frequency of these injuries, the indications for surgical treat...
