Aims.
The August 2012 Children’s orthopaedics Roundup. 360. looks at: whether 3D-CT gives a better idea of coverage than plain radiographs; forearm fractures after trampolining accidents; forearm fractures and the Rush pin; the fractured distal radius; elastic stable intramedullary nailing for long-bone fractures; aponeurotic recession for the equinus foot; the torn medial patellofemoral ligament and the adductor tubercle; slipped capital femoral epiphysis; paediatric
The April 2012 Wrist &
Hand Roundup. 360 . looks at releasing the trigger finger, function in the osteoarthritic hand, complex regional pain syndrome, arthroscopic ligamentoplasty for the injured scapholunate ligament, self-concept and upper limb deformities in children,
The October 2012 Wrist &
Hand Roundup. 360. looks at: osteoarticular flaps to the PIPJ; prognosis after
The primary aim of this study was to describe long-term patient-reported outcomes after ulna shortening osteotomy for ulna impaction syndrome. Overall, 89 patients treated between July 2011 and November 2017 who had previously taken part in a routine outcome evaluation up to 12 months postoperatively were sent an additional questionnaire in February 2021. The primary outcome was the Patient-Rated Wrist and Hand Evaluation (PRWHE) total score. Secondary outcomes included patient satisfaction with treatment results, complications, and subsequent treatment for ulnar-sided wrist pain. Linear mixed models were used to compare preoperative, 12 months, and late follow-up (ranging from four to nine years) PRWHE scores.Aims

Hand Roundup360 looks at: simple debridement and ulnar-sided wrist pain; needle fasciotomy or collagenase injection; joint replacement in osteoarthritic knuckles; the Mannerfelt arthrodesis; scaphoid union rates with conservative treatment; the benefits of atorvastatin for muscle re-innervation after sciatic nerve transection; and complications of trapeziectomy.
Arthroscopy has become a routine surgical procedure, used as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool for the treatment of joint problems. This article discusses its origins and looks at how it is currently used.

Hand Roundup360 looks at: the Herbert ulnar head prosthesis; the five-year outcome for wrist arthroscopic surgery; four-corner arthrodesis with headless screws; balloon kyphoplasty for Kienböck's disease; Mason Type 2 radial head fractures; local infiltration and intravenous regional anaesthesia for endoscopic carpal tunnel release; perilunate injuries; and replanting the amputated fingertip.
