CLINICAL OUTCOMES OF EXCISION ARTHROPLASTY FOR KIENBOCK'S DISEASE
View through CrossRef
We have carried out a replacement of the lunate in 12 patients with advanced Kienböck's disease, with excision of the lunate and insertion of an iliac bone flap wrapped into palmaris longus. The aims of this study were to determine the effect of this procedure for advanced Kienböck's disease. At a mean follow-up period of 45.3 months, the mean clinical score was excellent in all cases. Radiographically, progression of osteoarthritis (OA) in the radiocarpal joint was found in two patients. At follow-up, the X-ray findings indicated a reduced of osseous core in four patients. On the other hand, carpal height ratio showed no significant change at follow-up. Excision arthroplasty using a tendon ball with osseous core for advanced Kienböck's disease leads to OA progression in some cases. However, clinical results were excellent in all cases. Therefore, this current study provides effective therapeutic procedure for advanced Kienböck's disease.

Description:
We have carried out a replacement of the lunate in 12 patients with advanced Kienböck's disease, with excision of the lunate and insertion of an iliac bone flap wrapped into palmaris longus.
The aims of this study were to determine the effect of this procedure for advanced Kienböck's disease.
At a mean follow-up period of 45.
3 months, the mean clinical score was excellent in all cases.
Radiographically, progression of osteoarthritis (OA) in the radiocarpal joint was found in two patients.
At follow-up, the X-ray findings indicated a reduced of osseous core in four patients.
