Fixation of Displaced Distal Ulna Fractures in Adults by Flexible Intramedullary Nail

NCT05173181 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 30

Summary

The distal ulna is an important weight-bearing component of the wrist joint and an essential element of the forearm articulation. After injury, significant residual malalignment or deformity of the distal ulna and deficiency of its ligamentous support have a deleterious effect on grip strength and forearm rotation.

Although the best treatment option for displaced distal ulnar fracture remains a subject of debate, most surgeons aim for anatomical reduction and stable fixation to avoid disruption of the distal radioulnar joint.

The investigators will assess clinical and radiological results of fixation of displaced distal ulna fractures in adults by flexible intramedullary nail.
