Ulnar Lengthening Research Articles

La maladie du semi-lunaire

In a multicenter study involving the five Orthopaedic Services of the COC, 57 patients with Kienböck's disease were reviewed 90% were treated surgically. The most common operations were ulna lengthening (30 cases) and lunate resection (11 cases). The most frequent indications or surgery were pain and stiffness of the wrist. Radiological changes are classified according to Decoulx. For evaluating post-operative radiological changes, however, the authors use different criteria ulna lengthening and lunate resection improved pain and mobility in 75% of cases. This study shows that lunate resection is a valid operation in the treatment of Kienböck's disease.

The Dorsal Flap Arthroplasty in the Treatment of Kienböckʼs Disease

Four patients with long-standing Kienböck's disease were treated by excision of the lunate and with dorsal flap arthroplasty. All patients had had unsuccessful attempts at conservative therapy. On follow-up, averaging twenty-eight months, all were symptom free and had returned to hobbies and athletic activities. The dorsal flap operation prevented the carpal migration which occurs with mere extirpation of the lunate and is preferable to inserting a prothesis or interposing other tissue. The morbidity and complications were less than are encountered either in intercarpal fusion or in the ulnar lengthening operation or in wrist arthrodesis.
