Ulnarization as Treatment for Radial Clubhand (RCH)
摘要
Previous methods of treatment of radial clubhand (RCH) have resulted in recurrent deformity and growth arrest of the distal ulna in a very high percent of cases. Ulnarization (procedure developed by Paley in 1999) is the first treatment of RCH to demonstrate no recurrence or growth arrest. Through a volar approach, the entire carpus is acutely transferred to the ulnar side of the ulna.
