Role of the Interosseous Membrane and TFCC in DRUJ Stability in Galeazzi´s Fracture: Anatomical and Biomechanical Study
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Open reduction and internal fixation for Galeazzi's Fracture. Completed, enrolled 20 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Most Galeazzi fractures can be treated adequately with open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of the radius alone, but some will remain unstable at the DRUJ and require repair of the TFCC.The purpose of this anatomical and biomechanical study was to define and measure DRUJ dislocation, displacement and instability associated with the sequential sectioning of the different bands in the interosseous membrane (IOM) and TFCC in the simulation of a Galeazzi fracture.
