RÉSUMÉ

Background@#Pediatric trigger digit (TD) does not appear at birth but is diagnosed after birth by finding a flexion contracture of the thumb or other fingers. The reported incidence of pediatric TDs varies from 0.5 to 5 cases per 1,000 live births without sex-specific predominance. We performed a nationwide large-scale study to determine the prevalence and incidence of pediatric TDs and analyzed operative treatment for pediatric TDs using the National Health Insurance data of South Korea. @*Methods@#Patients with pediatric TDs, aged 0–10 years between 2011 and 2020, were included in this study. Children born between 2011 and 2015 were set as the reference population and followed up until 2020. We calculated the prevalence and incidence rates of pediatric TDs according to age and sex and analyzed the operation rate, age at surgery, time interval from initial diagnosis to surgery, and follow-up period. Patient selection and treatment were based on International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10). @*Results@#The prevalence rates of pediatric TDs ranged from 0.063% to 0.084%. Girls had a higher prevalence rate (0.066%–0.094%) than boys (0.060%–0.075%). The total incidence rate was 77.6/100,000 person-years, and the incidence rate was higher in girls (84.8) than in boys (70.7). Among 2,181,814 children born between 2011 and 2015, 12,729 were diagnosed with pediatric TDs, of which 1,128 (8.9%) underwent operative management. The means of age at initial diagnosis, age at surgery, and the time interval between diagnosis and operation were 2.76 ± 1.91 years, 3.79 ± 2.19 years, and 1.15 ± 1.71 years, respectively. @*Conclusions@#High prevalence and incidence rates of pediatric TDs were found in 2- to 3-year-old patients. Among pediatric patients, 8.9% underwent operative management that was most frequently conducted between 2 and 3 years of age (within 1 year of initial diagnosis).

RÉSUMÉ

Background@#Distal metaphyseal-diaphyseal junction fractures of the humerus are a subset of injuries between humeral shaft fractures and distal intra-articular humerus fractures. A lack of space for distal fixation and the unique anatomy of concave curvature create difficulties during operative treatment. The closely lying radial nerve is another major concern. The aim of this study was to determine whether anterolateral dual plate fixation could be effective for a distal junctional fracture of the humerus both biomechanically and clinically. @*Methods@#A right humerus 3-dimensional (3D) model was obtained based on plain radiographs and computed tomography data of patients. Two fractures, a spiral type and a spiral wedge type, were constructed. Three-dimensional models of locking compression plates and screws were constructed using materials provided by the manufacturer. The experiment was conducted by using COMSOL Multiphysics, a finite element analysis, solver, and simulation software package. For the clinical study, from July 2008 to March 2021, a total of 72 patients were included. Their medical records were retrospectively reviewed to obtain patient demographics, elbow range of motion, Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) scores, Mayo Elbow Performance Scores (MEPS), and hand grip strength. @*Results@#No fracture fixation construct completely restored stiffness comparable to the intact model in torsion or compression. Combinations of the 7-hole and 5-hole plates and the 8-hole and 6-hole plates showed superior structural stiffness and stress than those with single lateral plates. At least 3 screws (6 cortices) should be inserted into the lateral plate to reduce the load effectively. For the anterior plate, it was sufficient to purchase only the near cortex. Regarding clinical results of the surgery, the range of motion showed satisfactory results in elbow flexion, elbow extension, and forearm rotation. The average DASH score was 4.3 and the average MEPS was 88.2. @*Conclusions@#Anterolateral dual plate fixation was biomechanically superior to the single-plate method in the finite element analysis of a distal junctional fracture of the humerus model. Anterolateral dual plate fixation was also clinically effective in a large cohort of patients with distal junctional fractures of the humerus.

RÉSUMÉ

Purpose@#Fractures of the capitellum of the humerus are relatively rare injuries, and the prevalence is known to be less than 1% of all elbow fractures. Since the capitellum forms an articular surface with the radial head, this fracture is considered to be an intra-articular fracture, and surgical treatment is required for the displaced fracture. Due to the rarity of this type of fracture, only a few studies on treatment have been published. We report the results of cases that underwent surgical treatment for capitellum fractures. @*Materials and Methods@#Through a retrospective review, patients who underwent surgical treatment for a capitellum fracture from January 2002 to January 2020, and who could be followed-up for at least 12 months and were over 16 years old were included. A total of 19 patients who underwent open reduction and internal fixation with K-wires and headless compression screws were included.Radiographic analysis was carried out using simple radiographs taken to investigate the stability of the joint and the union of fractures.Clinical results were analyzed using the range of motion of the elbow, visualized pain score, Mayo Elbow Performance score (MEPS), Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) score, and postoperative complications were analyzed at the time of the final follow-up. @*Results@#The average age of the patients was 57.3 years, and their average follow-up time was 22.6 months. Most of them were type I (n=12) as per the Bryan–Morrey classification. The radiographic analysis showed that bony union was obtained at the final follow-up in all cases, and there was no case of joint instability. The results of the clinical analysis showed that average flexion contracture was 9.7° (min 0°–max 30°), average further flexion was 130.3° (min 90°–max 145°), and average range of motion was 120.5°, and the average visualized pain score at the final follow-up was 1.3 (min 0–max 3). At the final follow-up, the average MEPS was 85.5 (min 75–max 95) and the average DASH score was 27.6 (min 5–max 46), which was satisfactory. @*Conclusion@#With early rehabilitation, capitellum fractures can be treated well without complications if the joint surface is aligned congruently with open reduction and firm fixation by using K-wire or headless compression screws.

RÉSUMÉ

Background@#The rupture of the central slip of an extensor tendon of a finger causes a boutonniere (or buttonhole) deformity, characterized by pathologic flexion at the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint and hyperextension at the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint. Currently, there are no standard treatment guidelines for this deformity. This study aimed to report clinical results of surgery to correct chronic boutonniere deformity. @*Methods@#This retrospective case series was conducted between January 2010 and December 2018 and only 13 patients with trauma-induced chronic deformity were included. After excision of elongated scar tissue, a direct anatomic end-to-end repair using a loop suture technique with supplemental suture anchor augmentation was conducted. Total active motion was assessed before and after surgery and self-satisfaction scores were collected from phone surveys. @*Results@#All patients presented with Burton stage I deformities defined as supple and passively correctable joints. The initial mean extension lag of the PIP joint (43.5°) was improved by an average of 21.9° at the final follow-up (p < 0.001). The mean hyperextension of the DIP joint averaged 19.2° and improved by 0.8° flexion contracture (p < 0.001). The average total active motion was 220.4° (range, 160°–260°). Based on the Souter’s criteria, 69.2% (9/13) of the patients had good results. Only 1 patient reported fair outcome and 23.1% (3/13) reported poor outcome. The average Strickland formula score was 70 (range, 28.6–97.1). In total, 10 patients (77%) had excellent or good results. Of 10 patients contacted by phone, self-reported satisfaction score was very satisfied in 2, satisfied in 3, average in 3, poor in 1, and very poor in 1. Three patients reported a relapse of the deformity during range of motion exercises, 1 of whom underwent revision surgery. One patient complained of PIP joint flexion limitation, and 2 complained of DIP joint flexion limitation at final follow-up. @*Conclusions@#In chronic boutonniere deformity, central slip reconstruction with anchor suture augmentation can be an easily applicable surgical option, which offers fair to excellent outcome in 77% of the cases. The risk of residual extension lag and recurrence of deformity should be discussed prior to surgery.

RÉSUMÉ

Purpose@#There are no standard surgical treatments for open distal radius fractures (DRFs), and the fracture fixator is chosen by the surgeon’s own experience. This study compared the outcomes of open reduction and volar locking plating (OR VLP) between closed and open AO-OTA type C3 DRFs. @*Materials and Methods@#Patient data were retrospectively collected between January 2010 and December 2018. Only patients aged >18 years with AO-OTA C3 DRFs were included. After further exclusion, the patients with DRFs were divided into two groups: 13 patients with open DRFs in Group 1 and 203 patients with closed DRFs in Group 2. Data on the patient characteristics and treatment-related factors were further investigated. For the radiological evaluation, the radial height, volar height, and volar titling were measured based on the final plain radiography, and the union time was measured. The wristrange of motion (ROM), pain visual analogue scale score, and modified Mayo wrist score for function were measured at the final outpatient follow-up. Finally, the complications associated with OR VLP fixa-tion were investigated. @*Results@#In the demographic comparison, the patients with open fractures were older (mean age, 62years) than those with closed fractures (mean age, 57 years), without a statistically significant differ-ence. The patients with open DRFs had longer antibiotic therapy and hospital stay durations. Although they presented a higher radial inclination, with statistical significance, the clinical implication was low with a mean difference of 3°. No significant differences were observed for the remaining radiologicalparameters, wrist ROM, and functional scores. An open DRF did not increase the complication rates,including deep infection. @*Conclusion@#Depending on the expertise of the operating surgeon, the primary OR VLP fixation in open intra-articular comminuted DRF did not increase the incidence of deep infections and yielded similar outcomes to a closed intra-articular comminuted DRF.

RÉSUMÉ

The tendon connects the muscles to the bones and transmits the loads generated by the muscles to the bones to move the joints, support the joints, and provide stability to the joints. Approximately 30% of patients complaining of musculoskeletal pain are associated with tendon disease, and approximately 50% of musculoskeletal injuries are caused by a tendon injury. Despite this frequent treatment of tendon damage, studies on the basic biology that provide scientific evidence for treatment, such as development, tendon injury, and healing, are still very limited. This review first summarizes the classification and composition of the tendon identified so far, the surrounding tissue, and the blood supply to the tendon. The limitations of the tendon recovery process after a tendon injury are also discussed.Finally, this review examines ways to improve tendon recovery and the biological approaches and tissue engineering that have been currently studied. In conclusion, innovative progress in promoting tendon healing has not been achieved despite the many advances in the basic structure of the tendon, and the cell and regulatory molecular factors involved in tendon recovery. Biological approaches and tissue engineering, which have become a recent issue, have shown many possibilities for the recovery of damaged cases, but further research will be needed until clinical application.

RÉSUMÉ

raumatic shoulder dislocations are one of the most common major dislocations in the general population. Injury to major vessels is rarely reported as a complication of shoulder dislocations. This case report presents the traumatic dissection of the axillary artery after a simple shoulder dislocation that was managed successfully with the placement of a self-expanding stent. With the clinical manifestations of a brachial plexus injury and progressive vascular compromise in the affected arm, a major vascular injury was detected on an angiogram, and a self-expanding stent was deployed. Through immediate diagnosis and prompt intervention, serious complications, such as hypovolemic shock and even death, were averted, ultimately achieving a favorable patient outcome.

RÉSUMÉ

In terms of management of Paget's disease of bone (PDB), early diagnosis and proper management achieving remission is essential with lifelong specialist follow-up. We present the case of a 40-year-old woman with PDB affecting mainly the distal extremities (ankle and wrist). The patient visited our hospital in 2012 with heel pain. Plain radiography revealed osteoporosis, and a bone scan revealed hot uptake. Initial laboratory investigations showed normal serum calcium, 25-hydroxy-vitamin D, and parathyroid hormone levels; however, osteocalcin, C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen, and bone alkaline phosphatase levels were elevated. A bone mineral density scan showed T- and Z-scores of −2.5 and −2.7, respectively, and bisphosphonate treatment was initiated. Biopsy performed on the calcaneal lateral wall revealed inconclusive findings. Follow-up biopsy on the left distal radius was performed 7 years later to investigate wrist pain, and this examination led to a final diagnosis as PDB. We suggest inconclusive biopsy result during the early phase of PDB and highly recommend follow-up evaluation in osteoporosis with atypical behavior.

OBJECTIVES@#We report a case of 3-column fracture caused by low-energy trauma in a patient with Baastrup disease who complained of acute radiating pain and motor weakness in the lower limbs after 3 weeks of conservative treatment. Subsequently, posterior fusion surgery was performed.SUMMARY OF LITERATURE REVIEW: Baastrup disease is characterized by enlargement and close approximation of adjacent spinous processes, and it mostly affects the L4-5 level of the spine. In patients with Baastrup disease affecting multiple levels of the lumbar spine, low-energy trauma can cause an unstable 3-column fracture with neurological compromise. Early recognition and surgical treatment prior to the emergence of a neurological deficit are required.@*MATERIALS AND METHODS@#An 84-year-old woman presented with back pain after falling down backward and colliding with the edge of a shelf at ground level. Considering the patient's general condition and age, she was initially treated with close observation and placement of a spinal brace with serial radiographic follow-up.@*RESULTS@#Computed tomography found 3-column fracture at the T11 level, which is quite rare in cases of minor trauma. At a 3-week follow-up, she complained of gradual lower extremity weakness, and her general lower extremity motor function decreased to grade 1–2. The patient underwent posterior fusion 2 levels above and below the affected vertebral body (T9-10-12-L1). Surgery was uneventful and the patient's motor function recovered.@*CONCLUSIONS@#In patients with Baastrup disease affecting multiple levels of the lumbar spine, based on our experience, low-energy trauma can cause an unstable 3-column fracture with neurological compromise. We highly recommend scrutiny of the interspinous space in elderly patients, especially those with a spinal fracture caused by low-energy trauma.

RÉSUMÉ

PURPOSE: Radial head fractures, which account for 33% of all fractures, are treated depending on the Mason classification. In comminuted type 3 fractures, open reduction internal fixation (ORIF), and radial head arthroplasty are the treatment options. This study examined the clinical outcome of modified Mason type 3 radial head fractures using ORIF with a plate. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The medical records and image of 33 patients, who underwent ORIF for modified Mason type 3 radial head fractures, were reviewed retrospectively. The preoperative plain radiographs and computed tomography images were used to examine the location of the fracture of the radial head, the number of fragments, union, joint alignment, and traumatic arthritis at the final follow-up. The range of motion (ROM) of the elbow at the last follow-up, pain score (visual analogue scale), modified Mayo elbow score (MMES), and complications were analyzed for the clinical outcome. RESULTS: Of the 33 cases, 14 were men and 19 were women. The mean age was 41.8 years and the average follow-up period was 19 months. The functional ROM was divided into three groups according to the number of bone fragments: 141.2°±9.3° of 3 (n=20), 123.8°±18.5° of 4 (n=7), 100.7°±24.4° of more than 4 (n=6). Furthermore, the MMES were 88.2±2.9, 83.7±4.3, and 77.3±8.4, respectively (p=0.027). Depending on the radial head fracture location, the ROM and MMES were 130.7°±7.5° and 82.1±4.7, respectively, with poor outcomes on the ulnar aspect compared to 143.1°±3.8° and 89.9±3.2 on the radial aspect. CONCLUSION: Various factors, such as the degree of crushing and location involved in the clinical outcome. In particular, the result was poor in the case of more than four comminuted fragments or chief position located in the ulnar aspect. In this case, radial head arthroplasty may be considered in the early stages.

RÉSUMÉ

BACKGROUND: Although distal radius fractures (DRF) are common fractures, intra-articular comminuted DRF with volar free fragments are uncommon. There is considerable difficulty in the fixation of free fragments beyond the watershed line using the existing volar locking plate. We aimed to examine the efficacy and potential complications associated with the use of juxta-articular volar plates in intra-articular DRF accompanied by free fragments beyond the watershed line. METHODS: The patients were enrolled in a consecutive manner between 2007 and 2016. In cases of DRF with free fragments beyond the watershed line, we employed a 2.4-mm small fragment juxta-articular volar locking compression plate using a volar Henry approach. A total of 32 patients were included in this study. There were 15 males and 17 females with a mean age of 52.3 years (range, 33 to 69 years). The mean follow-up period was 14.5 months (range, 10 to 24 months). Preoperative radiographs and three-dimensional computed tomography images were used to analyze fracture patterns and assess the free fragments beyond the watershed line. The mean number of free fracture fragments beyond the watershed line was 2.33. Plain radiographs of immediate postoperative and last follow-up were used to confirm fracture union, incongruence, radial height, volar tilt, radial inclination, and arthritic changes. For functional assessment, we measured grip strength, range of motion (ROM), modified Mayo wrist score (MMWS) and determined Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) scores at the last follow-up. Postoperative complications were monitored during the follow-up period. RESULTS: All patients obtained sound union without significant complications. At the last follow-up, 16 cases presented with an articular step-off of more than 1 mm (mean, 1.10 mm). The mean MMWS was 76.3 (range, 55 to 90), mean DASH score was 15.38 (range, 9 to 22), mean visual analogue scale score for pain was 1.2 and mean grip strength was 75.5% of the opposite side. The mean ROM was 74.3° for volar flexion and 71.5° for dorsiflexion. CONCLUSIONS: In cases of intra-articular DRF with free fragments beyond the watershed line, a volar approach with use of a juxtaarticular plate provided favorable outcomes without significant complications.

RÉSUMÉ

BACKGROUND: Cases of low-energy-induced distal radius fracture (DRF) are increasing. Sarcopenia is considered to be an independent risk factor for fragility fractures. We compared body appendicular lean muscle mass (ALM) and bone mineral density (BMD) in patients with DRF and a comparable control population. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between skeletal muscle mass and DRF. METHODS: We performed a retrospective review of patients diagnosed with fragility DRF. The DRF group included 87 patients treated at our institute. The control group comprised data for 87 individuals in the general population from among 2,124 selected using nearest-neighbor propensity scoring, based on age, weight, height, and body mass index. All medical conditions and past history were also compared between the two groups. RESULTS: The relative overall ALM, combining arm and leg lean body mass divided by height squared, was not significantly different (DRF group, 6.093 kg/m²; controls, 5.945 kg/m²). T-score, a parameter of BMD, was significantly different between groups (DRF, −2.42; controls, −2.05). The proportion of patients with osteoporosis was significantly different (DRF, 44 [50.6%] vs. control, 29 [33.3%], respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with DRF did not have significantly lower average lean body mass. BMD was significantly lower in patients with DRF than in controls.

RÉSUMÉ

BACKGROUND: We determined the prevalence of sarcopenia according to fracture site and evaluated the associated risk factors in female patients with osteoporotic fractures. METHODS: A total of 108 patients aged 50 years or older with an osteoporotic fracture (hip, spine, or wrist) were enrolled in this retrospective observational study. A diagnosis of sarcopenia was confirmed using whole-body densitometry for skeletal muscle mass measurement. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors for sarcopenia. RESULTS: Of 108 female patients treated for osteoporotic fractures between January 2016 and June 2017, sarcopenia was diagnosed in 39 (36.1%). Of these, 41.5% (17/41) had hip fractures, 35% (14/40) had spine fractures, and 29.6% (8/27) had distal radius fractures. Body mass index (BMI; P=0.036) and prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD; P=0.046) and rheumatoid arthritis (P=0.051) were significantly different between the groups. In multivariable analysis, BMI (odds ratio [OR], 0.76; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.55–1.05, P=0.098) and CKD (OR 2.51; 95% CI, 0.38–16.2; P=0.233) were associated with an increased risk of sarcopenia; however, this was not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS: This study evaluated the prevalence of sarcopenia according to the fracture site and identified associated risk factors in patients with osteoporotic fractures. A longterm, observational study with a larger population is needed to validate our results.

RÉSUMÉ

PURPOSE: The spontaneous extensor pollicis longus (EPL) tendon rupture is a well-documented complication of non-displaced or minimally displaced distal radius fracture. Authors analyzed the radiographs of patients treated for closed EPL rupture after distal radius fracture. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-eight patients (21 females, 7 males; average age of 58 years) with tendon transfer for spontaneous rupture of EPL after distal radius fracture were included. Wrist radiographs were taken at the first visit with EPL rupture. On the lateral view, posterior cortical displacement, distance from highest point in Lister's tubercle to fracture line, and height of the Lister's tubercle were measured. The distance from the lunate facet to the fracture line was measured on anteroposterior view. Radiologic change at the time of EPL rupture around the Lister's tubercle was evaluated by comparing it with the contra lateral wrist radiograph. Radial beak fracture pattern was also identified. RESULTS: The interval between the injury and the spontaneous EPL rupture varied from 2 to 20 weeks, with an average of 6.7 weeks. There were 25 cases of non-displacement, 3 cases of mean 2.0 mm cortical displacement. The average distance from the lunate facet to the fracture line was 9.1 mm (3-12.1 mm), from the highest point in Lister's tubercle to the fracture line was 3.0 mm toward proximal radius (1.7-4.9 mm). The average height of the Lister's tubercle was 3.4 mm in the injured wrist and 3.1 mm in the opposite wrist. Radial beak fracture pattern was shown at 11 cases. CONCLUSION: All cases presented no or minimal displaced fracture, and the fracture line was in the vicinity of the Lister's tubercle. Those kinds of fractures can highlight the possibility of spontaneous EPL rupture, depites its rarity.

RÉSUMÉ

BACKGROUND: Authors assessed lean body mass (fat free tissue), upper and lower, and bone mineral density (BMD) in patients of osteoporotic bone distal radius fracture (DRF) and degenerative rotator cuff tear (RCT) patients of shoulder. We predict inferior muscle mass and osteoporosis are more frequent in DRF group than RCT group. METHODS: Between January 2016 and June 2017, overall 38 of DRF and 30 of RCT were eligible for this retrospective comparison study after excluding of patients with compounding factors. BMD and other body composition, fat and lean body mass, were assessed with a single dual energy X-ray absorptiometry in one hospital. RESULTS: T-score of spine were −2.2 and −1.6 in DRF and RCT patients with significant difference (P=0.040). Final BMD score, lower score of patient between spine and femoral score, of both group also presented difference with significance, −2.4 of DRF and −1.9 of RCT patients (P=0.047). Diagnosis of osteoporosis was confirmed in 19 patients (50%) from DRF compared with 9 patients (30%) from RCT. The mean lean soft tissue mass of the arm was 3.7 kg and 3.8 kg in the DRF and RCT, respectively, without significant difference (P=0.882). The mean lean body mass of the leg was 11.0 kg and 10.5 kg in the DRF and RCT, respectively, without significant difference (P=0.189). The relative overall appendicular lean mass was not significantly different between groups. CONCLUSIONS: Even though BMD difference, we did not find muscle mass difference between DRF and RCT patients.

RÉSUMÉ

PURPOSE: Hand fractures can be treated conservatively in many cases, but rotation malalignment is one of the important indications for surgical treatment because of dysfunction. We performed open reduction and internal fixation in these malalignment fractures and report clinical and radiological results. METHODS: This study included 28 patients (18 male, 10 female) who had metacarpal and phalangeal fractures with rotational malalignment of finger on initial examination. Patients with combined injuries including open soft tissue damage or multiple fractures were excluded. Mean age was 36.1 years and average follow-up period was 14.6 months. Perioperative extent of rotation and correction during the follow-up, union on the radiographs, Range of motion, disability of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH) score, and pinch power at the last follow-up were evaluated. RESULTS: Average corrected angulation of rotation was 11.9° and no patient showed scissoring appearance of fingers at the last follow-up. All patients showed solid bony union on the radiographs during the follow-up. The average of total active motion of the injured fingers were average 254°, average DASH score was 3.2 and average pinch power was 3.0 kg at the last follow-up. CONCLUSION: Clinical and radiologically satisfactory results were obtained in all patients. Care should be taken not to overlook the rotational misalignment after fracture of the hand, and surgical treatment should be considered to ensure correct reduction and fixation.

RÉSUMÉ

PURPOSE: Subluxation of the extensor tendon that result from sagittal band injury at the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint can lead to joint pain and limit the range of motion in fingers. Upon the injury mechanism, other causes except rheumatoid arthritis are relatively uncommon, and studies regarding the operative management are also sparse. We performed a direct repair of sagittal band and attempted to report clinical results of our experience in patients without application of conservative management. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Authors retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 26 patients who underwent operative treatment for extensor tendon subluxation. There were 23 males and 3 females with the mean age of 39.9 years old. All patients had an injury on the long finger, and presenting an ulnarward extensor tendon subluxation. Nine patients were injured from the direct blow, 14 patients from the flicking finger, and 3 patients from the resisted finger flexion. The mean time interval between the injury and operation was 27.5 days. The mean duration of follow-up was 14.6 months. As clinical results, authors evaluated visual analogue scale, MCP joint range of motion, total active motion (TAM), 3rd finger tip pinch power, and recurrence of extensor tendon. RESULTS: The mean final MCP joint flexion was 89.6° with 22.8° of extension. The mean TAM was 248° without a significant difference between opposite hands. The mean tip-pinch power was 3.4 kg (7.5 lb), which also did not have any significant difference with contralateral hand. Herein, we did not experience subluxation recurrence, and all but one was pain-free at the final outpatient clinic follow-up. CONCLUSION: A direct repair of the sagittal band for the extensor tendon subluxation presented a favorable clinical outcome. Therefore, we can suggest that such a method can be a treatment option for patients not undergoing conservative management.

RÉSUMÉ

PURPOSE: The authors performed an autologous cancellous bone graft from the iliac crest and headless compression screw fixation for the treatment of Mack-Lichtman type II scaphoid waist nonunion. The purpose of this study was to determine whether this procedure was effective in achieving bony union and restoration of alignment. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed medical records and radiographs of 30 patients who underwent a cancellous bone graft and headless compression screw fixation for scaphoid waist nonunion. There 28 men and 2 women with a mean age of 32.8 year-old (range, 21–63 year-old). The mean time to surgery from initial injury was 10 months (range, 3–25 months) and the average follow-up duration was 37.5 months (range, 15–52 months). The authors analyzed bony union, lateral intrascaphoid angle (LISA), scapholunate angle (SLA), radiolunate angle (RLA), and scaphoid length in radiographs and evaluated the modified Mayo wrist score (MMWS) as a functional outcome. RESULTS: Bony union was achieved in all cases. In lateral plain X-ray, preoperative anatomic alignment including LISA, SLA, RLA, and scaphoid length was recovered at immediate postoperative measurement. Those alignment restoration was likely to maintain in final follow-up in despite of statistical difference. The wrist motion and the MMWS improved significantly at the last follow-up. CONCLUSION: A non-structural autologous cancellous bone graft from the iliac crest and headless screw fixation provided reliable results and can be one of the effective treatment options for patients with symptomatic Mack-Lichtman type II nonunion in the middle one-third of the scaphoid.
