Background: Case payment mechanisms have become the principal means of remunerating hospitals in most developed countries. Our purpose was to analyse the reimbursement for different types of tissue transfer in five European countries.
Methods: We looked at common surgical options for pedicled and free flaps.
Purpose: We report a series of 5 patients (mean age, 41 y) presenting with ulnar styloid impingement syndrome (USIS) and treated by an oblique ulnar styloid osteotomy. The purpose of the study was to determine whether the osteotomy is an effective method for treating USIS.
Methods: The diagnosis of USIS was made based on a history of ulnar-sided wrist pain supported by clinical and radiological findings.
