Avascular Necrosis: a Short-Term Outcome Analysis SCIENTIFIC ARTICLE Arthroscopic Partial Capitate Resection for Type Ia Avascular Necrosis: A Short-Term Outcome Analysis Takamasa Shimizu, MD,* Shohei Omokawa, MD,*† Francisco del Piñal, MD,‡ Koji Shigematsu, MD,§ Hisao Moritomo, MD,k Yasuhito Tanaka, MD* Purpose To examine short-term clinical results of arthroscopic partial resection for type Ia avascular necrosis of the capitate. Methods Patients who underwent arthroscopic treatment for type 1a avascular necrosis of the capitate with at least 1-year follow-up were identified through a retrospective chart review. The necrotic capitate head was arthroscopically resected with removal of the lunate facet and preservation of the scaphoid and hamate facets. Wrist range of motion, grip strength, and radiographic parameters—carpal height ratio, radioscaphoid angle, and radiolunate angle— were determined before surgery and at the latest follow-up. Patients completed a visual analog scale for pain; Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand measure; and the Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation score before surgery and at the latest follow-up. Results Five patients (1 male, 4 females) with a mean age of 34 years (range, 16e49 years) and a mean follow-up duration of 20 months (range, 12e36 months) were identified during the chart review. All were type Ia (Milliez classification). Arthroscopy revealed fibrillation or softening with cartilage detachment at the lunate facet of the capitate head and an intact articular surface at the scaphoid and hamate facet. At the latest follow-up, the mean wrist flexion-extension was 123 (vs 81 before surgery) and grip strength was 74% (vs 37% before surgery). The visual analog scale score for pain; the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand score; and the Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation score before surgery showed a significant improvement following treatment. Radiographic parameters did not significantly change at the final follow-up, although the proximal carpal row trended toward flexion. Conclusions Arthroscopic partial resection of the capitate head was an acceptable treatment for type Ia avascular necrosis of the capitate. It provided adequate pain relief and improved the range of wrist motion and grip strength during short-term follow-up. (J Hand Surg Am. 2015;40(12):2393e2400.

Next, the mid- carpal portal was used to assess the integrity of SLIL and LTIL and to inspect for cartilage detachment or loose bodies in the midcarpal joint (Fig. 1). The radial mid- carpal portal was used as a viewing portal, and the ulnar midcarpal portal was used as a working portal. The capitate head was excised by forming a “reversed U- shaped” plane with preservation of the scaphoid and hamate facets (Fig. 2). The radial edge of the resection matched the SLIL, which divides the capitate head into the scaphoid and lunate facets. The ulnar edge of the resection fit the hamate facet. The distal resection was in a convex and concave shape, with the distal edge located approximately 5 mm from the articular surface of the capitate head. A 3.0-mm bur was applied in a back-and- forth motion to resect 5 mm of the capitate head via the ulnar midcarpal portal. The bur diameter was used to gauge the amount of bony resection. The depth was also checked using a portable fluoroscopy unit. The wrist was extended and flexed during the resection to confirm that there was no mechanical impingement (Fig. 1). After the tourniquet was removed, bleeding from the resected capitate edge was observed.

Metastases to the upper limbs of the skeleton are extremely uncommon, with only 10–15% occurring in this region. Metastases to the hand and wrist comprise about 0.15% of all hand tumours, and only 0.1% of all metastases. Carpal bone metastases are much rarer than those to the metacarpal and phalangeal bones. They usually masquerade as more common hand pathology such as arthritis or osteomyelitis. Given the bleak prognosis of carpal metastatic disease in lung cancer, treatment of a metastasis to the hand is usually palliative. Contrary to earlier beliefs, palliative radiotherapy plays a significant role in pain relief and improving hand mobility in patients diagnosed with metastatic disease of the hand. We report a case of adenocarcinoma of the lung with metastases to the capitate bone of the carpus treated with palliative radiotherapy.

E‑mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The carpal boss is a bony prominence at the dorsal aspect of the 2nd and/or 3rd carpometacarpal joint, which has been linked to various etiologies, including trauma, os styloideum, osteophyte formation, and partial osseous coalition. It may result in symptoms through secondary degeneration, ganglion formation, bursitis, or extensor tendon abnormalities by altered biomechanics of wrist motion. We present a case of symptomatic carpal boss with the finding of a partial osseous coalition at the 2nd carpometacarpal (metacarpal– trapezoid) joint and highlight the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of carpal boss impingement and secondary osteoarthritis. To the best of our knowledge, there is no report in the literature describing the imaging findings of partial osseous coalition and degenerative osteoarthritis in relation to carpal boss. Key words: Carpal boss; carpal coalition; chronic wrist pain; os styloideum; osteoarthritis Introduction A persistent os styloideum is the widely accepted theory behind the carpal boss and has been described as the ninth Carpal boss, also known as “carpe bossu,” is a bony carpal bone.[4,5] It represents an un‑united ossicle over prominence at the dorsal aspect of the 2nd and/or the dorsal aspect of the wrist at the base of the 2nd and 3rd carpometacarpal joint and was first described by Fiolle.[1] 3rd metacarpals.

There have been only 2 reported cases of chondroblastoma involving the cap- itate. This is the first report of chondroblastoma with secondary aneurysmal bone cyst involving the capitate. A 33-year-old man presented with a 3-year history of pain and swelling of the right wrist. Radiography as well as computed tomography Figure: Radiograph showing a lytic lesion in the showed a radiolucent area and no matrix calcification within the capitate. Magnetic capitate. resonance imaging revealed a homogeneous signal that was low on T1-weighted images and high on T2-weighted images and showed only slight enhancement. On the basis of imaging findings, the authors chose excisional biopsy. The bone tumor in the capitate was explored through a dorsal approach by dividing the extensor tendons. After repeated curettages, bone graft substitute using allograft bone was packed into the capitate. Histologically, the authors diagnosed this tumor as a chon- droblastoma with a secondary aneurysmal bone cyst. At the final 2-year follow-up, there was evidence of bone union, full range of motion, and recovery and no evi- dence of recurrence. Although the recurrence of chondroblastoma is occasionally reported, the principal treatment is intralesional curettage and bone graft. High- speed burring, phenol, bone cement, and cryosurgery have been reported to reduce local recurrence.

Thorington, Jr.1 and Brian J. Stafford2 1 ^Department of Vertebrate Zoology, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC 20560-0108 USA 2Department of Anatomy, Howard University College of Medicine, 520 W Street, N.W., Washington, DC 20059 USA Abstract. The homologies of the carpal bones of flying squirrels, presented by Oshida et al. (2000a, b), are reviewed, together with the evidence supporting traditional homology assessments. Evidence for the homology of the styliform cartilage of flying squirrels with the hypothenar cartilage of other squirrels is also reviewed. Development, articulations, topography, and muscle insertions favor both the traditional hypothesis of homology assess- ments of the carpal bones and also the hypothesis that the styliform cartilage is homologous with the hypothenar cartilage. Key words: carpal homologies, flying squirrels, Pteromyinae, styliform cartilage. In two papers, Oshida et al. (2000a, b) described the styliform cartilage of flying squirrels and suggested that it is homologous with the pisiform bone of other mammals. This is a revolutionary interpretation of the homology of the carpus. It contrasts with the hypothe- sis of Thorington et al. (1998) that the styliform cartilage of flying squirrels is homologous with the hypothenar cartilage of other squirrels. In addition, the homology assessments of Oshida et al. (2000a, b) for all the proximal carpal bones differ fundamentally from the more traditional hypothesis followed by many authors, e.g. Hill (1937), Bryant (1945), Holmgren (1952), Grasse and Dekeyser (1955), Thorington (1984), Thorington et al.

Abstract Introduction: Isolated fractures of the capitate account for only 0.3% of carpal bones fractures. Case Presentation: We report a motorbike rider, aged 27 years, who was involved in a motorcycle accident. He complained of right wrist pain, and wrist motion was considerably impaired. In the right wrist radiograph and CT scan, we diagnosed an isolated displaced capitate fracture. Open reduction was done under regional anaesthesia. After confirming the guide-wire’s position and reduction of the fracture by imaging, we applied a headless compression screw (HCS, Synthes, Paoli, USA). After 24 months, the patient regained pain-free activity level with 90% of grip strength (in comparison with the contralateral wrist), with extension, flexion, radial deviation, ulnar deviation, supination, and pronation of 75°, 75°, 15°, 30°, 80°, and 80°, respectively. Conclusions: This study suggested that an early diagnosis and open reduction of the displaced fragment in the treatment of such difficult fractures can lead to a successful outcome. Keywords: Capitate Bone, Fracture, Wrist Injuries 1. Introduction found isolated displaced capitate fracture (Figures 1-3).
