چکیده

Dorsal and palmar subluxation of the distal ulna can be difficult to both diagnose and treat. Patients often present long after their initial injuries with posttraumatic arthritic changes in the distal radioulnar joint. Hemiresection interposition arthroplasty is a salvage procedure that is reliable for both pain relief and restoration of motion.

“Quadrangular-construct” modification of Sauve-Kapandji procedure

BACKGROUND Subluxation of ulna in distal radioulnar joint disorders causes pain on motion, loss of grip strength, and a restriction of forearm rotation. Several procedures have been described to salvage DRUJ disorders including the Darrach procedure, the matched distal ulnar resection, the hemiresection interposition arthroplasty (Bowers procedure) and the Sauve-Kapandji (S-K) procedure. All th...

Hemiresection of the distal ulna by means of pronator quadratus interposition and volar stabilization.

Surgery for ulnar-sided wrist problems have proved a major challenge. A variety of bony procedures, which may or may not be supplemented with soft tissue interposition, tenodesis, and fusion of the distal radioulnar joint, have been designed in an attempt to address this challenge. The problems encountered in the use of these procedures have included weakness, snapping and instability of the di...

Outcome Assessment after Aptis Distal Radioulnar Joint (DRUJ) Implant Arthroplasty

Background:  Conventional treatments after complicated injuries of the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) such as Darrach and Kapandji-Sauvé procedures have many drawbacks, which may eventually lead to a painful unstable distal ulna.  The development of DRUJ prosthesis has significantly evolved over the past years. In this study, we assessed the outcome results of patients after DRUJ implant arthro...

Surgical treatment outcome of giant cell tumor of distal ulna: En bloc resection vs. curettage and bone graft

    Background: Giant cell tumor (GCT) of the bone is a benign neoplasm with local aggressive behavior. Distal ulna is a very rare place for GCT. Published studies have mainly focused on case reports, and thus there is no consistent treatment strategy for this tumor at this location. This retrospective study was conducted to evaluate the oncological and functional results of 2 di...

Arthroplasty of the distal ulna distal in managing patients with post-traumatic disorders of the distal radioulnar joint: measurement of quality of life.

OBJECTIVE To measure the quality of life and clinical-functional results from patients diagnosed with osteoarthrosis of the distal radioulnar joint who underwent surgical treatment using the technique of total arthroplasty of the ulna, with a total or partial Ascension(®) prosthesis of the distal ulna. METHODS Ten patients were evaluated after 12 months of follow-up subsequent to total or par...
