 To determine the rate of salvage procedures and any other unplanned reoperations in patients with symptomatic Kienböck's disease who were treated with radial shortening osteotomy. In addition, we studied patient-reported outcome in the long term using Patient-Reported Outcome Measure Information System (PROMIS) instruments.  We performed a retrospective review of all patients who underwent radial shortening osteotomy for stage 2 and 3A Kienböck's disease.

Background: This study aimed to (1) describe long-term patient-reported outcomes of surgically treated symptomatic radial sensory nerve neuromas on function, pain interference, pain intensity, and satisfaction; (2) assess which factors were associated with worse function, higher pain intensity, and more pain interference; and (3) describe the secondary surgery rate and factors associated with secondary surgery.

Methods: The authors conducted a retrospective review of patients surgically treated for radial sensory nerve neuroma from 2002 to 2016 (n = 54). Twenty-five of these 54 patients completed a follow-up survey including the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) upper extremity, pain interference, and depression scales; numerical rating scale pain and satisfaction instruments; and the global rating scale of change, at a mean period of 10.
