irreducible Galeazzi Fracture dislocation due to an avulsion Fracture of the fovea of the ulna
Journal of Hand Surgery (European Volume), 1999Co-Authors: Y Kikuchi, Toshiyasu NakamuraAbstract:We report a rare case of Galeazzi Fracture-dislocation with an irreducible distal radioulnar joint. The cause of the irreducibility was entrapment of a fragment avulsed from the fovea of the ulna. The patient was successfully treated with open reduction and internal fixation of the radius, ulnar styloid process and avulsed Fracture at the fovea of the ulna.

IRREDUCIBLE Galeazzi Fracture-DISLOCATION DUE TO AN AVULSION Fracture OF
2016Co-Authors: Y KikuchiAbstract:A 22-year-old man was injured in an automobile accident. He sustained Fracture-dislocations of the left wrist and right elbow. Initial radiographs showed a Fracture of the radius 3 cm proximal to the wrist joint angulated anteri-orly with the ulnar head dislocated dorsally (Fig 1). Closed reduction of the left wrist and right elbow was per-formed immediately. Successful reduction was achieved in the right elbow, but in the left wrist the ulnar head remained dorsally dislocated. There was a Fracture of the ulnar styloid process and a small fragment of unknown origin was seen in the distal radioulnar joint (Fig 2)

irreducible Galeazzi Fracture dislocation due to intra articular Fracture of the distal ulna
Journal of Hand Surgery (European Volume), 2007Co-Authors: Tane Gunes, Mehme ErdemAbstract:Irreducible Galeazzi Fracture-dislocation is a rare injury. Structures that mechanically block the reduction are usually soft tissues. We present an irreducible case due to distal ulnar intra-articular Fracture.

CASE REPORT Bilateral Galeazzi Fracture-dislocations: a case report of early rehabilitation
2016Co-Authors: Shingo Komura, Hidehiko Nonomura, Takashi Satake, Tatsuo YokoiAbstract:Abstract A 24-year-old man had bilateral Galeazzi Fracture-dislocations due to a motorcycle accident. The right radius Fracture was a simple Fracture and was fixed with a limited contact dynamic compression plate. The left radius Fracture was a comminuted Fracture and was fixed with a long locking compression plate in the bridging plate fashion while maintaining reduction with a temporary external fixator. Postoperative computed tomography under passive rotation of both forearms showed acceptable con-gruency of the distal radioulnar joints, and early rehabili-tation of forearm rotation was started at 2 weeks after the operation. At 13-month follow-up, bone union of both Fractures was achieved, and forearm motion was almost restored to normal. Moreover, no subluxation or dislocation of either distal radioulnar joint was observed

ulnar nerve injury as a result of Galeazzi Fracture a case report and literature review
Hand, 2017Co-Authors: Paul S Roettges, Tolga TurkerAbstract:Background: Sparse documentation of Galeazzi Fracture with associated nerve injury exists in the medical literature. The purpose of this report is to review the available literature in regard to incidence, nerve injury type, treatment strategies, and expected outcomes. Methods: We present a classic Galeazzi Fracture dislocation with associated complete ulnar nerve transection injury at the level of the wrist. After rigid internal bony stabilization, allograft nerve repair was performed. The patient’s presentation, operative management, recovery, and a thorough literature review are discussed. Results: Fracture union was attained with near full wrist and elbow range of motion. Despite lack of ulnar nerve function return, the patient was able to resume manual labor occupation. Conclusions: Despite its close proximity to the dislocating distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ), thorough review reveals rare associated ulnar nerve palsy. If there is suspicion for nerve injury in the setting of open DRUJ dislocation, the...
