Results of ulnar shortening osteotomy for ulnocarpal abutment after malunited distal radius fracture.
Surgical correction for ulnocarpal abutment syndrome after malunited distal radius fracture remains controversial. We reviewed sixteen patients (7 men, 9 women) who underwent isolated ulnar-shortening osteotomy for ulnar wrist pain as their main complaint. Mean age was 48 years. The range of flexion-extension increased from 81 degrees to 103 degrees, and range of supination-pronation from 120 d...
متن کاملReconstruction of Unstable Hips with Ilizarov Technique. Role of Pelvic Support and Distal Lengthening Realignment Osteotomy.
BACKGROUND Hips can suffer severe damage due to untreated developmental dysplasia, septic arthritis, tuberculosis, a neglected fracture of the neck of femur and neglected hip dislocation. The Ilizarov technique offers an effective treatment by providing a stable hip with abolished Trendelenburg lurch and equalizing limb length discrepancy through distal lengthening realignment osteotomy. MATE...
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 کاملDistal fibular lengthening after premature growth arrest: a case report.
Post-traumatic premature closure of the distal fibular growth plate is a rare entity leading to shortening of the lateral malleolus. We report on a 14-year old boy who presented with a 4-year history of worsening, diffuse discomfort and swelling of his left ankle, as well as fibular shortening and talar malreduction. He had sustained a distal tibial fracture 4 years earlier and had been treated...
متن کاملIntra-articular corrective osteotomy for malunited Hoffa fracture: A case report
Hoffa fracture, an isolated coronal plane fracture of the posterior aspect of the femoral condyle, is known as an unstable, intra-articular fracture, and therefore, operative treatment is recommended. However, insufficient open reduction or failure of fixation may lead to malunion. We performed intra-articular corrective osteotomy for a malunited Hoffa fracture in a 31-year-old man and obtained...
