treatment of aseptic necrosis of the Lunate Bone kienbock disease using a nickel titanium memory alloy arthrodesis concentrator a series of 24 cases
Medicine, 2015Co-Authors: Tianhua Zhou, Xinyu Fan, Yueliang ZhuAbstract:Avascular necrosis of the Lunate Bone (Kienbock disease) is caused by loss of blood supply of the Bone. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a novel nickel-titanium (Ni-Ti) memory alloy arthrodesis concentrator in the treatment of this disease.A consecutive 24 patients with stage IIIb aseptic Lunate necrosis were treated with scapho-trapezio-trapezoeid (STT) arthrodesis using a Ni-Ti arthrodesis concentrator from August 2008 to December 2012. Wrist pain, grip strength, carpal height, and scaphoLunate angle were measured and compared before and after the surgery. The wrist functions were evaluated using the Mayo scale.Patients were followed up for a mean of 12 months (range, 6-24 months). Grip strength of the affected side was significantly improved after the surgery (18 ± 4.74 kg vs. 30.21 ± 7.14 kg, P < 0.0001). Wrist pain score was significantly decreased from 5.88 ± 0.9 to 0.5 ± 0.51 (P < 0.0001). Carpal height and Mayo score were also significantly increased after the surgery (P < 0.0001). ScaphoLunate angle was significantly decreased after the surgery (68.38 ± 7.28° vs. 49.91 ± 4.28°, P < 0.0001). No implant breakage, loose implant, wound infection, or nonunion occurred.STT arthrodesis is effective for the treatment of stage IIIb Lunate necrosis. The Ni-Ti memory alloy arthrodesis concentrator is a convenient tool for STT arthrodesis with excellent and reliable results.

Long-term review of fascial replacement after excision of the carpal Lunate Bone.
Clinical orthopaedics and related research, 1997Co-Authors: Robert E. CarrollAbstract:Excision of the carpal Lunate Bone in Kienbock's avascular necrosis gives relief of pain. To maintain grip strength, increase range of motion, and prevent carpal collapse or shifting, this space has been filled with various materials. Forty-three patients received fascial interposition replacement, and the experience and results of 10 patients observed for 10 years or more (range, 10-34) are presented. Pain was relieved. Range of motion was increased. Carpal collapse did not occur. All patients use their hand in an unrestricted, stressful activity. The result of an operation during an extended period is documented.
