[Rehabilitation treatment of inveterate meta-epiphyseal deformities of the radius].
Unilateral separate anchor--wiring osteosynthesis of the forearm bones has essential advantages over the accepted methods for osteosynthesis of metaepiphyseal fractures of the radius. For adaptation to modern requirements an apparatus is suggested with external fixation of the radial diaphysis and the second metacarpal bone by means of bundles of short Kirschner wires with Y-shaped insertion of the pointed ends. The apparatus provides for longitudinal and transverse movement with fixation of the fragments at any level of the forearm and maintenance of rotational movements and movements at the interphalangeal joints. The method was applied in operations on 18 patients with neglected metaepiphyseal deformities of the radius; the outcome was positive.
