Corrective Osteotomy of the Distal Radius Without Bone Grafting

January 19, 2023 updated by: Vilijam Zdravkovic, Cantonal Hospital of St. Gallen

Corrective Osteotomy of the Distal Radius With Palmar Locking Plate Osteosynthesis Without Bone Grafting and Without Cortical Contact

The investigators retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent extraarticular corrective osteotomy of the distal radius via a palmar approach and without the use of a bone graft, even in the absence of cortical contact after corrective osteotomy.

The goal of this retrospective observational study is to determine whether secondary dislocation or nonunion occurs after corrective osteotomy without bone grafting.
