Stacked-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...

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 کاملUlna shortening osteotomy using a compression device.
PURPOSE To report the functional and radiographic outcomes of a cohort of patients treated for ulnar impaction syndrome with a single technique of ulnar shortening osteotomy. METHOD We performed ulnar shortening osteotomy on 18 consecutive patients over a 10-year period by using an oblique osteotomy and compression plating technique with an AO compression device (Synthes, Paoli, PA). There we...
متن کاملResults of ulnar shortening osteotomy with a new plate compression system.
PURPOSE The gold standard for treatment of ulnar impaction has become ulnar shortening osteotomy. Previous reports in the literature have shown not only good results with relief of ulnar-sided wrist pain but also significant nonunion rates and painful hardware necessitating further surgery and potentially, metal removal. The purpose of this paper is to review the success rate of ulnar shortenin...
