A 4-Anchor Construct With Internal Bracing Technique for Surgical Treatment of Perilunate Dislocations

Sponsor: Bryan D Brown,MD

Summary

The purpose of the research study is to determine the overall clinical and radiographic outcome differences between internal brace technique and the gold standard Kirschner wires (K-wire) technique for treatment of perilunate dislocations (e.g. nonunion, reoperation, infection, fixation failure, etc.). A secondary purpose is to determine the specific types of complications and their incidence rates with respect to internal brace technique and the gold standard Kirschner wires (K-wire) technique (e.g. range of motion losses, pain, numbness, weakness, etc).
