The distal radioulnar joint complex in rheumatoid arthritis: an overview.

Abstract:

:Rheumatoid arthritis frequently involves the distal radioulnar joint region and is progressive. Early recognition of involvement is paramount to offering patients appropriate and timely treatment. Early operative intervention should be considered preventative. Synovectomy, hemiresection interposition technique, matched distal ulna resection and distal radioulnar fusion with creation of a pseudarthrosis through the distal ulnar shaft have been advocated for patients with early involvement. Distal ulnar resection remains the most commonly used procedure for advanced disease. No soft tissue reconstructive procedure to stabilize the ulnar stump offers distinct advantages. They should be considered modifiers and augmentations to distal ulna resection. Judicious resection of the ulnar head minimizes instability of the ulnar stump. The use of an ulnar cap is not recommended for routine use.

  • The management of bone defects of the forearm after trauma.
