Title: Volar radioscapholunate arthrodesis for malunited distal radius fracture with unsalvageable wrist articular degeneration: case report. Author: Argintar E, Edwards S. Journal: J Hand Surg Am; 2010 Jul; 35(7):1089-92. PubMed ID: 20610053. Abstract: Fractures of the distal radius occur commonly, and volar plating has emerged as a current, successful, and popular treatment for this injury. When this technology fails, salvage procedures must be selected that aim to maximize wrist motion and minimize pain. We present a case of volar radioscapholunate wrist arthrodesis in the setting of unfeasible intraoperative volar osteotomy to treat a malunited distal radius fracture.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
