Malunion of a proximal humerus fracture often is painful and debilitating. Operative management of this deformity is technically demanding and frequently results in a relatively high rate of complications. Reconstruction involves a spectrum of procedures including excision of bony prominences, tuberosity osteotomy and realignment, and shoulder ...

(1) Acceptable degrees of fracture alignment vary by fracture location. (2) Surgical correction of malunion requires thoughtful preoperative planning; surgical options include wedge, dome, and oblique osteotomies as well as distraction osteogenesis. (3) Persistent periarticular malalignment correlates with progression of adjacent arthritis.

Fractures of the distal radius are common injuries. Acceptable results typically can be obtained with appropriate surgical or nonsurgical management. However, a small percentage of these fractures can progress to symptomatic malunion, which traditionally has been treated with osteotomy of the distal radius. Proper understanding of anatomy, biomechanics,

Management of Calcaneal Malunion
American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeon, 2011The potential for disabling malunion following calcaneal fracture is high, regardless whether a patient is treated nonsurgically or surgically. Fracture displacement typically results in loss of hindfoot height, varus heel position, and widening of the hindfoot, with possible subfibular impingement and irritation of the peroneal tendon and/or sural ...

The Treatment of Calcaneal Malunion
Foot and Ankle Clinics, 2014The surgical treatment of calcaneal malunion is technically very demanding and requires a careful assessment of the exact cause of the problem. A number of different surgeries are available depending on the precise cause of symptoms. The results are reasonable and justify surgery in an otherwise disabled group of patients.

Treatment for calcaneal malunion
European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery & Traumatology, 2012Pain, limping, and deformity are the most common complications following calcaneal malunion which results from non-operative treatment for calcaneal fractures.To introduce the experience of treating calcaneal fracture malunion.Between December 2009 and April 2011, eleven patients with calcaneal malunion were treated operatively.

Anatomic reduction and fixation of unstable ankle fractures is necessary to prevent posttraumatic arthritis. Malunion of the distal fibula in unstable ankle fractures may lead to progressive talar instability. Ankle fracture malunions often present with concomitant syndesmotic widening, which can cause surgeons to overlook changes in fibula length and ...

Malunion of a first metatarsal osteotomy or fracture can result in dorsal angulation of the distal fragment and shortening of the metatarsal, among other deformities. Dorsal malunion can be caused by improper orientation of the osteotomy, poor intraoperative fixation, or loss of fixation post-operatively due to premature weight bearing or catastrophic ...

Malunions of the forearm are not a common entity that the orthopedist will manage in practice; notwithstanding their scarcity, they can be problematic to treat. The functional outcomes of a malunion are largely based on the functional range of motion and presence or absence of pain.

Three patients with painful malunions of the scaphoid and significant loss of active wrist extension were treated with an opening wedge multiplanar osteotomy that corrected flexion, ulnar deviation, and pronatory rotational malalignment of the distal fragment.
