Computer-Assisted Corrective Osteotomy for Malunited Diaphyseal Forearm Fractures

Abstract: Computer-assisted osteotomy can provide excellent radiographic and clinical outcome for the treatment of malunited diaphyseal forearm fractures. Satisfactory restoration of forearm motion can be achieved even in relatively long-standing cases in adults.

“…To reproduce preoperative simulation in the actual surgery, we developed an operative method that uses a custom-made osteotomy and reduction guides designed on the basis of a preoperative 3D computer simulation 13,18,19,22,28,34 and manufactured with medical-grade plastic materials by rapid prototype technology.…”

“…9,10,15,30,38 Since 2003, we have been developing an original computer program that employs 3D imaging to simulate anatomic correction of the upper limb deformity based on computed tomography (CT) data. 18,19,22,34 In this system, we used a custom-made osteotomy and reduction guide to reproduce preoperative simulation in the actual surgical treatment of cubitus varus deformities, malunited distal radial fractures, and forearm fractures. 18,19,22 Internal fixation of the osteotomy site was performed with Kirschner wires or bone plates while the correction was being temporarily maintained.…”

“…Note that the intra-articular fragments of the preoperative plan (brown) were virtually fused to make the registration more robust (Color figure online) accuracy of 1°/1 mm was reported for distal radius osteotomies performed with a similar technique. Several other studies have evaluated the feasibility and accuracy in a clinical setting for the forearm bones [29][30][31], the humerus [52], and the lower extremities [34]. In these studies, an average deviation from the 3D preoperative plan between 1°and 5°was measured after surgery, but the evaluation was only performed on postoperative radiographs.…”

“…We evaluated the bilateral symmetry of the clavicle by assessing the side-to-side differences with computer methods known from 3D surgical planning (Murase et al, 2008;Miyake et al, 2012;Kataoka et al, 2013) of mal-united bones, In these approaches, the 3D model of the pathological bone is separated into two parts defined by the location of the fracture. Each part is superimposed with the mirror-model of the contralateral bone (i.e., the reconstruction template) in an automatic fashion by applying a registration method for surface models, the so-called iterative closest point (Zhang and Chen, 2001) (ICP) algorithm.…”
