Perilunate injuries involve complex wrist damage needing surgery. Most patients experience some dysfunction even after optimal treatment for these carpal injuries.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Hand and Wrist Injuries
  • Musculoskeletal Trauma

Background:

  • Perilunate injuries represent complex trauma affecting wrist bones and ligaments.
  • These injuries necessitate surgical intervention for effective management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline the standard operative management for perilunate injuries.
  • To discuss the expected outcomes and functional limitations post-treatment.

Main Methods:

  • Surgical restoration of carpal alignment.
  • Open reduction and internal fixation of associated fractures.

Main Results:

  • Successful surgical repair is the primary goal.
  • Mild to moderate functional deficits are common post-operatively.

Conclusions:

  • Optimal surgical treatment is crucial for perilunate injuries.
  • Patient outcomes frequently include residual mild to moderate dysfunction.
