Abstract:
Authors give a review on the most up-to-date explanation for the aetiology of the lunate malatia and the characteristic features of the different stages of this disease. A report is given on the result of operative treatment in 60 cases of lunate malatia. In the non-arthritic stage the Graner-procedure or silivon prosthetic implant, in grave painful carpal arthritis a complete arthrodesis with AO-plate are recommended. The importance of the correct operative indication and method has been emphasized.
