Scaphoid malunion

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1989
Forty-five patients with 46 scaphoid fractures were studied more than 6 months after union by clinical examination and trispiral tomography. Twenty had normal scaphoid alignment with lateral intrascaphoid angles less than 35 degrees; the rest had varying degrees of increased flexion angulation of the scaphoid, ranging from 36 degrees to 60 degrees ...

Tibial Malunion

Foot and Ankle Clinics, 2006
Tibial malunion, a fracture healed in a position that affects the mechanical function of the limb, can be difficult to assess and to correct surgically. Precise definition of malunion has yet to be determined, and the limits of deformity which are associated with arthritic change also remain imprecise.

Complex Radius Shaft Malunion: Osteotomy with Computer-Assisted Planning

open access: yesHand, 2010
We report about two cases with a combined axial and angular malunion of the radius shaft with functional loss of pro-supination. For the preoperative planning, a computer simulation was developed that allows the quantification of the malunion by ...

Malunions

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1991
The decision to attempt surgical correction of a malunion must be based on a careful preoperative assessment of the patient. The animal's gait must be observed. An animal that is not clinically affected by the malunion usually is not a candidate for surgery. Joint function and the condition of the bone, cartilage, and soft tissues must be noted. If the

Calcaneus Malunion and Nonunion

Foot and Ankle Clinics, 2007
Though the debate continues between operative interventions versus conservative therapy, there is significant evidence that the deformity that results from calcaneus malunions causes significant disability for the patient. Knowledge of the fracture patterns in the original calcaneal fracture aids in both understanding the deformity of the malunion and ...

Metatarsal Malunion

Foot and Ankle Clinics
Metatarsal fractures account for almost 50% of all foot fractures; the most frequent trauma mechanism for central metatarsal fractures is direct trauma. Care should be taken when evaluating patients with higher energy accidents, as they are often associated with serious soft-tissue damage and adjacent joint injuries, such as Lisfranc injuries ...

Nonunions and malunions of the pelvis

European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, 2014
Neglected pelvic fractures manifesting as pelvic nonunion or malunion are usually due to inadequate initial fixation or negligence of the injury because of increased attention towards other associated life-threatening conditions. The management of such injuries is complex.

Malunions and Nonunions of the Forearm

Hand Clinics, 2007
Modern techniques allow for high rates of union in the treatment of diaphyseal forearm fractures. In the case of nonunion, addressing the biology and stability of the fracture will similarly yield high union rates, but slightly decreased functional outcomes.
