چکیده

During the diagnostic investigation of a patient with ulnar wrist pain, a hot spot in the proximal ulna was revealed on the technetium scintigram, which was found on radiographs to correspond to an osteolytic lesion in the proximal ulna. The lesion was resected and the histological diagnosis was an osteoblastoma. The wrist symptoms disappeared after resection of the lesion in the proximal ulna.

Giant-Cell Tumor of the Distal Ulna Treated by Wide Resection and Ulnar Support Reconstruction: A Case Report

Giant-cell tumor of bone occurred in the distal end of the ulna is extremely uncommon. A 23-year-old male had a giant-cell tumor occurred in the distal end of the ulna. After wide resection of the distal segment of the ulna including giant-cell tumor, ulnar components of the wrist joint were reconstructed with modified Sauvé-Kapandji procedure using the iliac bone graft, preserving the triangul...

Load transfer at the distal ulna following simulated distal radius fracture malalignment.

PURPOSE To measure the effects of distal radius malalignment on loading at the distal ulna. METHODS Using an adjustable mechanism to simulate angulated and translated malalignments, clinically relevant distal radius deformities were simulated in a cadaveric model. A custom-built load cell was inserted just proximal to the native ulna head to measure the resultant force and torque in the dista...

Ulnar impingement syndrome.

We report the ulnar impingement syndrome, which is caused by a shortened ulna impinging on the distal radius and causing a painful, disabling pseudarthrosis. Of the 11 cases reported, 10 were due to excision of the distal ulna after injury to the wrist; the other was a result of a growth arrest after a fracture of the distal ulna in a child. The symptoms are a painful, clicking wrist and a weak...

Reconstruction of the distal radio-ulnar joint with a prosthesis of the distal ulna in the treatment of a recurrent giant cell tumour.

We present a case of 35-year old left-handed woman with recurrent giant-cell tumour affecting 1/4 of the distal part of the left ulna, with associated ulnar nerve involvement. After resection of the tumour and 1 cm of the ulnar nerve, the distal ulna was reconstructed with an individually designed and matched prosthesis, followed by ulnar nerve reconstruction. At 12 months follow-up the patient...
