Acquired manus valgus or acquired radial-club hand deformity of the wrist is an uncommon entity. Pathological destruction of the distal radius, following infection, trauma, or tumorous conditions in the paediatric population, often leads to radial shortening, ulnar lengthening and angulation, distal radioulnar joint dislocation, and radial deviation of the wrist. We report a case of acquired manus valgus treated by centralisation of the ulna on the wrist. At the 2-year follow-up, the patient had a functional, stable, and cosmetically acceptable wrist, with radiographic evidence of ulnocarpal fusion. It is an easy to perform, cost-effective surgery.
後天性橈側球棒手是一種罕見的手部畸形。病理性的橈骨遠端破壞,感染,外傷,或在兒童時的腫瘤,往往導致橈骨短縮,尺骨延長和成角,尺橈關節脫位和手腕的橈偏。我們報告一個利用尺骨置中手術來治療後天性橈側球棒手的病例。兩年後的隨訪,發現患者有功能齊全,穩定和外觀可接受的手腕,而影像顯示尺腕關節融合良好。這是一個容易執行,符合成本效益的手術。
