Summary

Assess the recurrence of deformity after wrist Centralization in cases of radial club hand and effect of the procedure on the ulnar lengthening , ulnar bowing , hand function and parent satisfaction.

Conditions

  • Radial Clubhand

Interventions

PROCEDURE

centralization

Wrist centralization involves aligning the distal ulna with the middle finger metacarpal and passing a large Kirschner wire or a small Steinmann pin through the middle finger metacarpal, carpus, and ulna for temporary stability. This is followed by soft tissue balancing in order to counteract the volar and radial directed force vectors consisting of reefing the ulnocarpal wrist capsule and transferring the extensor carpi ulnaris muscle distally and flexor carpi ulnaris muscle dorsally on the wrist.
