چکیده

A series of 10 patients with reducible chronic post-traumatic scapholunate dissociation, treated with the modified Brunelli technique, is presented. The general outcome was good with a mean DASH score of 12, a range of motion of 69% and gripping force of 77% compared with the contralateral side.

New concept of scapholunate dissociation treatment and novel modification of Brunelli procedure - anatomical study

BACKGROUNDS This paper describes a novel method in treatment of scapholunate dissociation accompanied with rotatory subluxation of the scaphoid. The idea of this method is to create a kind of axial lever that can fully reconstruct anatomical relationship between the scaphoid and the lunate, with no involvement of extrinsic ligaments, and with simultaneous restriction of pathological alignment o...

Treatment of Scapholunate Dissociation With Palmaris Longus Tendon Graft: A Biomechanical Study

Posttraumatic instability of the wrist, resulting in scapholunate dissociation, is a common injury pattern in the wrist [2]. Mayfield et al. [1] described instability progressing sequentially from a scapholunate interosseous ligament (SLIL) tear to complete ligament failure around the lunate, resulting in lunate dislocation. Linscheid et al. [4] also demonstrated that excision of the dorsal rad...

Cadaveric scapholunate reconstruction using the ligament augmentation and reconstruction system.

Background Untreated scapholunate ligament disruption may lead to progressive wrist arthritis. Current techniques used to treat the disruption may not prevent arthritis because of attenuation of a reconstructive ligament substitute or failure to re-establish normal wrist kinematics. Questions/Purposes This study evaluates a combined synthetic-autologous technique for the treatment of scapholuna...

Dorsal intercarpal ligament capsulodesis for predynamic and dynamic scapholunate instability.

We treated a prospective series of 18 patients (nine men and nine women) with a mean age of 35 years (range 15 to 57), with chronic predynamic or dynamic scapholunate instability by a dorsal intercarpal ligament capsulodesis using the modified Mayo technique. All the patients were assessed by the modified Mayo wrist score and DASH questionnaire. Wrist arthroscopy was done in all patients before...
