Open AccessOutcomes of distal ulna locking plate in management of unstable distal ulna fractures: a prospective case series
Given the absence of a satisfying plate system to deal with multifragmentary or subcapital distal ulnar fractures, the Distal Ulna Locking Plate (DUL, I.T.S. GmbH, Graz, Austria) could become a useful treatmen...

Open AccessPrimäres Weichteilmanagement bei offenen Frakturen
Weichteil- und Knochendébridement im Rahmen offener Frakturen, um das Infektionsrisiko zu minimieren und einen primären Hautverschluss zu erreichen oder die Voraussetzung für eine zügige Weichteildeckung zu sc...

Comparison of volarly and dorsally displaced distal radius fracture treated by volar locking plate fixation
In case of distal radius fractures (DRF) the distal fragment generally displaces either dorsally or volarly. Scientific literature however, seldom differentiates between volarly and dorsally displaced DRFs whe...

Biomechanical in vitro comparison of suture anchors for thumb UCL repair
Different types of intraosseous suture anchors can be used for thumb ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) repair surgery. Some of them have already been tested biomechanically in intact bone; however, there exists ...

Open AccessTotal wrist arthrodesis for septic wrist arthritis and loss of the bony carpus following percutaneous pinning of the fifth carpometacarpal joint: a case report
We report on a patient who developed septic wrist arthritis with destruction of the entire carpus due to osteomyelitis following percutaneous pinning of a fifth metacarpal base fracture. Arthrodesis was perfor...

Characteristics of secondary arthrofibrosis after intra-articular distal radius fracture
The purpose of this study was to assess characteristics of radiocarpal arthrofibrosis after intra-articular distal radius fractures (DRF).

Ulnar shortening with the ulna osteotomy locking plate
Ulnar shortening for ulnocarpal unloading using a new device enabling parallel osteotomy, rotation-secured compressive shortening, lag screw placement and hybrid stabilization combined in a solely locking plat...

Arthritis predicting factors in distal intraarticular radius fractures
Intra-articular malunion with step off and gap formation is claimed to be crucial for radiocarpal degeneration. In addition to well-defined intraarticular malunion, the shape of the distal radius is important ...

Fixation of nondisplaced scaphoid fractures: making treatment cost effective
Nondisplaced scaphoid waist fractures treated with prolonged plaster immobilisation often lead in transient joint stiffness and to a delay in return to sport and work activity. The long time off work increases...

Palmar locking plate for treatment of unstable dorsal dislocated distal radius fractures
This study investigates the clinical and radiological results of open reduction and internal fixation of unstable distal radial fractures using a palmar placed interlocking plate system with no substitutes for...

Dorsolateral dislocation of the proximal interphalangeal joint: closed reduction and early active motion or static splinting; a retrospective study
In a follow-up examination 50 patients who had sustained dorsal dislocations of the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint, the results of two conservative therapy regimens, either immobilisation or early motion...

Scapholunate ligament reconstruction using a periosteal flap of the iliac crest: a biomechanical study
Advances continue to improve direct reconstruction of the dorsal scapholunate (SL) ligament, which is the strongest part of the entire SL ligament and is known as the turning point between the scaphoid and lun...
