  • Wrist arthroscopic Wafer surgery combined with triangular fibrocartilage complex insertion point reconstruction in treatment of Palmer type ⅡC combined with type ⅠB ulnar impingement syndrome

    ObjectiveTo investigate the effectivess of arthroscopic Wafer surgery combined with triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) insertion point reconstruction in the treatment of Palmer type ⅡC combined with typeⅠB ulnar impingement syndrome. MethodsThe clinical data of 14 patients with Parlmer type ⅡC combined with type ⅠB ulnar impingement syndrome who met the selection criteria between July 2021 and April 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 7 males and 7 females with an average age of 43 years ranging from 16 to 59 years. The causes of injury were fall in 8 cases and sprain in 6 cases. The time from injury to operation ranged from 1 to 6 months, with an average of 2.3 months. Distal radioulnar joint instability was found in all cases. Arthroscopic Wafer surgery combined with TFCC insertion point reconstruction was used. The effectiveness was evaluated by comparing the wrist flexion-dorsiflexion range of motion, wrist ulnar deviation-radial deflection range of motion, forearm pronation-supination range of motion, visual analogue scale (VAS) score, and modified Mayo wrist score before and after operation.Results All patients were followed up 6-12 months, with an average of 9.1 months. The positive variation of ulna was (3.2±0.7) mm before operation, and the negative variation of ulna was (2.2±0.6) mm after operation. There was a significant difference in ulna variation between pre- and post-operation (t=23.851, P<0.001). The pain symptoms and forearm rotation function of the patients after operation significantly improved. At last follow-up, the wrist flexion-dorsiflexion range of motion, wrist ulnar deviation-radial deflection range of motion, forearm pronation-supination range of motion, VAS score, and modified Mayo wrist score significantly improved when compared with those before operation (P<0.05). ConclusionArthroscopic Wafer surgery combined with TFCC insertion point reconstruction can effectively relieve wrist pain, enhance the stability of the distal radioulnar joint, and restore the function of the wrist in patients with Palmer type ⅡC combined with type ⅠB ulnar impingement syndrome.
