  • Title: Stabilization of the distal radioulnar joint after ulnar styloid nonunion using Mitek anchors.
    Author: Walker LG.
    Journal: Orthop Rev; 1994 Sep; 23(9):769-72. PubMed ID: 7800406.
    Abstract:
    Nonunion of the ulnar styloid is a relatively common injury that can often be ignored. In patients presenting with pain, compromised range of motion, and decreased grip strength, careful physical examination, and dynamic radiographic evaluation may document distal radioulnar joint instability. Mitek anchors provide a simple, effective means of triangular fibrocartilage complex reattachment, providing stabilization of the distal radioulnar joint.
