Article Synopsis
- - A systematic review and meta-analysis compared surgery (ORIF with VLP) to conservative treatment (closed reduction and immobilization) for elderly patients (≥60 years) with acute displaced distal radius fractures, involving a comprehensive literature search and data analysis from multiple databases.
- - The results showed that while the surgical group had better radiological outcomes and lower DASH scores at 12 months, the differences were not statistically significant or clinically relevant according to established benchmarks.
- - Overall, the study concluded that for this patient group, surgical treatment does not offer meaningful advantages over conservative treatment when evaluated after one year, despite better imaging results.
Objectives: The purpose of this agreement was to establish evidence-based consensus statements on imaging of distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) instability and triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) injuries by an expert group using the Delphi technique.
Methods: Nineteen hand surgeons developed a preliminary list of questions on DRUJ instability and TFCC injuries. Radiologists created statements based on the literature and the authors' clinical experience.
In treating scaphoid nonunion, we have developed a technique of bone grafting and elongation of the scaphoid stabilizing the construct with K wires without compression. Bony union was achieved in the large majority of scaphoids as demonstrated on computed tomography (CT) scans. We advocate slight lengthening of the scaphoid with bone graft and K-wire fixation without compression of the grafted bone when treating scaphoid waist nonunion.
