Stress distribution pattern in the distal radioulnar joint before and after ulnar shortening osteotomy in patients with ulnar impaction syndrome

Abstract Ulnar shortening osteotomy (USO) for ulnar impaction syndrome potentially leads to degenerative changes of the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ). This study was performed to evaluate the effect of the sigmoid notch morphology on the stress distribution pattern of the DRUJ using computed tomogr...

We reviewed the pre- and postoperative transverse CT images of 15 wrists that had undergone USO.

We calculated and statistically compared the percentage of the high-density area (%HDA) in each divided region of the sigmoid notch. In type L, %HDA was significantly larger in the distal-dorsal region of the sigmoid notch before USO. Postoperatively, in type L, no specific regions showed a significantly different %HDA. In type C, %HDA was significantly larger in the distal-volar region of the sigmoid notch before USO. Postoperatively, %HDA of type C was significantly larger in the proximal-volar region.
