Stable internal fixation and early motion has not been routinely available for distal radius fractures. Difficulties with the dorsal approach discourage surgeons from internally fixing the most common fracture types. The introduction of a new volar plate with subchondral support fixation allows the treatment of most distal radius fractures with stable internal fixation and early…

This prospective study compared the outcome--subjective, objective and radiographic--of two surgical techniques for treating basal joint arthritis of the thumb: a "simple" trapeziectomy (group I) and a ligament reconstruction/tendon (group II) interposition technique. There were respectively 22 patients in group I and 34 in group II, all women with primary osteoarthritis. Both techniques gave favourable…
Sixty-one wrists in 61 patients with osteoarthritis of the distal radioulnar joint treated by three consecutive procedures (20 Darrach, 25 Sauvé-Kapandji and 16 hemiresection-interposition arthroplastic procedures) were retrospectively evaluated. We preferred to perform Darrach's procedure in even the early stages of osteoarthritis of the distal radioulnar joint prior to introduction of Sauvé-Kapandji and hemirestion-interposition arthroplastic…
Twenty-nine patients with hamate fractures were treated. The two main types of hamate fractures are hook fractures (type 1) and body fractures (type 2). We sub-divided type 2 fractures according to the fracture line into coronal, type 2a and transverse, type 2b. There were 15 type 1, 11 type 2a and three type 2b fractures.…
We report the use of a hypothenar pedicled fat flap to cover the median nerve in recalcitrant carpal tunnel syndrome. Forty-five patients with recurrent symptoms after previous carpal tunnel surgery were included in this study. Patients with incomplete release of the transverse carpal ligament were not included. We performed an anatomical study on 30 cadavers.…
