Sliding Plate System: A Novel Method and Device for Shortening Osteotomy
Preview AbstractWe report a novel sliding plate system (SPS) and its application for radial shortening osteotomy. We conceptualised, designed and introduced the SPS, which helps with precise shortening osteotomy in both radius and ulna. We implanted the SPS in a patient with Kienböck disease following a radius shortening osteotomy. The SPS was safe and efficient, and the surgical technique eliminated extra steps. The SPS affords precise shortening, optimum compression and anatomic alignment after radius shortening osteotomy.
Level of Evidence: Level V (Therapeutic)
