Cuboid Bone for Distal Radius Reconstruction: An Anatomical Cadaver Study
Conclusion The CB presented reasonable anatomical similarities with the DR and a long and consistent pedicle with an adequate blood supply observed during ICG injection.
Clinical Relevance This study supports the possibility of using the CB as a vascularized bone transfer for autologous reconstruction of the articular surface of the DR. Further study is warranted.

Cuboid Bone for Distal Radius Reconstruction: An Anatomical Study by 3D Models
Conclusion The articular surface of the cuboid bone has many similarities to the articular surface of the DR and had the most similarities to the DR of the foot bones study. The cuboid bone could be considered as a replacement for the DR in cases where there is a need for osteoarticular replacement or reconstruction. Further investigations are warranted.
Clinical Relevance A vascularized transfer of the cuboid bone may be a suitable option to replace a DR given the anatomical similarities reported. [...] Thieme Medical Publishers, Inc. 333 Seventh Avenue, 18th Floor, New York, NY 10001, USAArticle in Thieme eJourn...

Complex Axial Carpal Dislocation with Scapholunate Ligament Injury
This article explores a distinctive case of axial radial carpal dislocation, highlighting an irreducible second carpometacarpal joint (CMCJ) and concomitant scapholunate (SL) ligament injury. Understanding the background of axial carpal injuries is crucial for recognizing and addressing these complex cases effectively.
Description A 27-year-old man presented with a left wrist injury following a motorcycle accident, revealing an irreducible second CMCJ with a unique ligamentous injury pattern. Despite unsuccessful closed reduction attempts, the surgical intervention involved a dorsal midline incision, fixation of the...

Radiocarpal Osteochondral Allografts for Wrist Pain Postproximal Row Carpectomy
We present an additional alternative to TWA, by resurfacing the radiocarpal joint affected by chondromalacia after a PRC. This option offers another treatment modality for recurrent wrist pain while still preserving some element of range of motion.

Dorsal Intercarpal Ligament Tears: An Arthroscopic Classification and Clinical Outcomes Study
Conclusion The study highlights the critical role of the DIC ligament in carpal stability and introduces an arthroscopic classification for evaluating this lesion. Surgical options for different types of DIC ligament tears were also discussed.

Nonvascularized Bone Grafting for Scaphoid Nonunion
Conclusions The literature does not demonstrate a difference in union rates when comparing the use of vascularized and non-vascularized grafts for scaphoid nonunions. When the proximal pole of the scaphoid can be salvaged, the choice of fixation is left to the surgeon's discretion.

Excision of the Distal Pole of the Scaphoid and the Midcarpal Joint
Conclusion This study suggests that midcarpal joint structure affects force transfer through the wrist and may predict wrist behavior following excision of the distal pole of the scaphoid. Specifically, type 1 wrists may be more prone to midcarpal joint collapse after excision.

Arthroscopic Thermal Shrinkage of Lunotriquetral Ligament Incomplete Tear without Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex Perforation
Conclusion We should be careful to differentiate LT ligament tears from TFCC lesions in the cases with ulnar wrist pain, because LT ligament tears may not be detected by MRI. Arthroscopic thermal shrinkage for traumatic LT ligament tear can be an effective treatment.

Three-Dimensional Analysis of Polyaxial Volar Locking Plate Position for Distal Radius Fracture
Conclusion The results showed that the most distal position of the polyaxial VLP differed depending on the screw insertion angle and became more proximal as the transverse diameter increased. These results may be useful as a reference for preoperative planning.

Influence of Surgeon's Expertise on the Duration of Approach and Closure during Osteosynthesis of Distal Radius Fractures
This study identified technical errors in hand surgery practices of new surgeons. By early identification and correcting these minor errors, it would be possible to speed up the learning curve. We recommend surgical videos to be systematically recorded and analyzed to improve hand surgery practices.
