Surgical treatment for neglected proximal radius luxation, often from Monteggia fractures, has a high recurrence rate. Proximal ulna osteotomy with open radius reduction yielded better outcomes in this long-term study.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Pediatric Orthopedics
  • Traumatology

Background:

  • Neglected proximal radius luxation presents a challenge in orthopedic treatment.
  • This condition can result from trauma (e.g., Monteggia fractures) or congenital dysplasia.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the long-term outcomes of various surgical procedures for neglected proximal radius luxation.
  • To identify surgical techniques associated with better results and lower recurrence rates.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective evaluation of thirteen patients treated for neglected proximal radius luxation.
  • Follow-up averaged 7 years postoperatively, assessing surgical outcomes and complications.
  • Comparison of different surgical interventions, including proximal ulna osteotomy with open radius reduction.

Main Results:

  • A high recurrence rate of deformity was observed in 7 out of 13 patients.
  • Complications included synostosis (radius-ulna) in one case and relative ulnar overlength in four cases.
  • Proximal osteotomy of the ulna combined with open reduction of the proximal radius demonstrated superior results compared to other methods.

Conclusions:

  • Surgical treatment for neglected proximal radius luxation, particularly congenital types, is associated with a significant risk of recurrence.
  • Operative intervention is recommended cautiously due to potential complications and high recurrence rates.
  • Proximal ulna osteotomy with open radius reduction appears to be a more effective surgical approach for this condition.
