The December 2014 Wrist & Hand Roundup360 looks at: ultrasound for carpal tunnel diagnosis; where we are at with management of undisplaced scaphoid fractures; ARPE for thumb metacarpals?; extravasation injuries in the hand and wrist; research and practice in hand surgery; and physio ineffective in hand osteoarthritis

The June 2012 Wrist & Hand Roundup³⁶⁰ looks at; radial osteotomy and advanced Kienböck's disease; fixing the Bennett fracture; PEEK plates and four-corner arthrodesis,;carpal tunnel release and haemodialysis; degloved digits and the reverse radial forearm flap; occupational hand injuries; trapeziometacarpal osteoarthritis; fixing the fractured metacarpal neck and pyrocarbon implants for the destroyed PIPJ.

The April 2014 Wrist & Hand Roundup³⁶⁰ looks at: diagnosis of compressive neuropathy; relevant reviews; the biomechanics of dorsal PIP fracture dislocation; the more strands the better; and state of mind the best predictor of outcome.

Things have not been quiet in the Cochrane Collaboration in the four months since the last 'Cochrane Corner', with the publication of six new or updated reviews summarised here, all conducted with the bulletproof Collaboration's methodology representing the pinnacle of evidence relevant to orthopaedic surgeons.

The April 2015 Wrist & Hand Roundup360 looks at: Non-operative hand fracture management; From the sublime to the ridiculous?; A novel approach to carpal tunnel decompression; Osteoporosis and functional scores in the distal radius; Ulnar variance and force distribution; Tourniquets in carpal tunnel under the spotlight; Scaphoid fractures reclassified; Osteoporosis and distal radial fracture fixation; PROMISing results in the upper limb

The June 2014 Wrist & Hand Roundup360 looks at: aart throwing not quite as we thought; two-gear, four-bar linkage in the wrist?; assessing outcomes in distal radial fractures; gold standard Swanson’s?; multistrand repairs of unclear benefit in flexor tendon release; for goodness’ sake, leave the thumb alone in scaphoid fractures; horizons in carpal tunnel surgery; treading the Essex-Lopresti tightrope; wrist replacement in trauma? and radial shortening reliable in the long term for Kienbock’s disease

The June 2013 Research Roundup³⁶⁰ looks at: a contact patch to rim distance and metal ions; the matrix of hypoxic cartilage; CT assessment of early fracture healing; Hawthornes and radiographs; cardiovascular mortality and fragility fractures; and muscle strength decline preceding OA changes.
