A Prospective Study on the Initial Results of a Low Profile Ulna Shortening Osteotomy System
HAND, 10/01/09
Isaacs J et al. – DASH and PRWE scores improved at three month follow–up. Osteotomy healing time averaged 10.3 weeks, and there were no nonunions. Average discomfort associated with palpation of the plate at final follow–up was 3.3, and one patient requested removal of the hardware. In this short–term follow–up study, the assessed ulna shortening system appears effective and, in general, well tolerated.
