The MaestroTM Wrist Reconstructive System for treatment of posttraumatic wrist joint osteoarthritis after a devasting course of a distal radius fracture: Case presentation and technical note to the implant
A 53-year-old right-handed and obese male sustained an intraarticular distal radius fracture (DRF) right due to a high energy injury that was primarily treated in another hospital with open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) using locked volar plating (LVP), one screw, and two Kirschner-wires
There was a failed ORIF with distinctive displacement of the dorsal main fragment associated with an unacceptable intraarticular step-off due to primary insertion of LVP metaphyseal screws that proved to be of inadequate length; and an untreated complete scapholunate dissociation (SLD) Lindau grade 3 (Figure 1A)
Summary
The MaestroTM Wrist Reconstructive System for treatment of posttraumatic wrist joint osteoarthritis after a devasting course of a distal radius fracture: Case presentation and technical note to the implant. DRF: distal radius fracture; ORIF: open reduction and internal fixation; LVP: locked volar plating; SLD: scapholunate dissociation; PA: posteroanterior; OA: osteoarthritis; TWA: total wrist arthroplasty; WRS: Wrist Reconstructive System; TWF: total wrist fusion
