The result of correction osteotomy of the radius and shortening osteotomy of the ulna for Madelung Deformity and literature review.
Öz
Background: Madelung deformity is a rare condition characterized by premature growth arrest of the volar–ulnar aspect of the distal radius growth plate. Different surgical procedures are described in the literature. In this study, we aim to present functional and clinical results of our technique in five wrists of 4 patients.
Methods: 5 wrists of 4 patients (3 females and 1 male) underwent surgery for Madelung deformity in our clinic between 2005-2014. Mean age of the patients was 15,4 (14-17) and mean follow up duration was 65,6 months (29-111). One patient had bilateral deformity. Patients were evaluated with wrist ROM, DASH and VAS score pre and post-operatively. Corrective osteotomy to the radius, shortening osteotomy to the ulna and release of the Vickers ligament were performed on all patients.
Results: Although there were no meaningful changes in the range of supination-pronation; palmar flexion was decreased; and dorsiflexion and radial deviation were significantly higher in the last follow-up compared to the preoperative values. Union was achieved at the all osteotomy sites. All radiological parameters were significantly better in the last follow-up x-rays. Preoperative and postoperative mean DASH score was 55,4 and 18,8, respectively and preoperative and postoperative mean VAS score was 6 and 1, respectively.
Conclusions: This surgical technique may be a good option for severe Madelung deformity in terms of functional and radiological results and patient satisfaction in the midterm follow-up. Pain and gross deformity were our main surgical indications.
