Resection Arthroplasty Is a Valuable Strategy for Humeroradial Synostosis - A Case Report.
Journal of Hand Surgery Asian-Pacific Volume 2024 March 16
A 15-year-old girl with humeroradial synostosis since birth underwent a resection arthroplasty. A trapezoidal resection osteotomy of approximately 2 cm was performed at the anterior part of the bone flexure. This resulted at 18 months in an elbow arc of motion of 60°-110° and forearm pronation/supination of 40° and 60° without postoperative complications and improved disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand and Hand 20 scores. Radiographic analysis revealed a humeroradial joint with a maintained pseudarthrosis and hinged motion at the humeroulnar joint. When performed by an experienced surgeon, resection arthroplasty corrects humeroradial synostosis, resulting in improvement in range of motion and quality of life. Level of Evidence: Level V (Therapeutic).
