Use of low-profile palmar internal fixation in digital replantation

Ross M, Bollman C, and Couzens GB. ANZ Journal of Surgery 2016; 86(S1):68-79. DOI: 10.1111/ans.13558 There are multiple surgical techniques to stabilize the bone in digital replantation. Various criteria need to be considered when choosing appropriate bony fixation including operative time, ease of exposure, stability, limitation of the area of dissection, and reproducibility. We describe [...]

Correction of residual radial translation of the distal fragment in distal radius fracture open reduction

Ross M, Allen L, Couzens GB. Journal of Hand Surgery 2015; 40(12):2465-2470. DOI: 10.1016/j.jhsa.2015.09.008 Distal radius fractures are common injuries of the upper extremity requiring treatment. In recent years, volar locking plate (VLP) fixation has become favored for operative treatment with the main goals being anatomic reduction and rigid fixation allowing for an early range [...]

Measuring thumb range of motion in first carpometacarpal joint arthritis: The inter-rater reliability of the Kapandji Index versus goniometry

Jha B, Ross M, Reeves SWSL, Couzens GB, and Peters SE. Hand Therapy 2016; 21(2):45-53. DOI: 10.1177/1758998315616399 Introduction: Goniometric measurement of thumb range of motion is often used as an outcome measure in assessing patients with first carpometacarpal osteoarthritis. Despite common use and demonstrated construct validity, the reliability of this technique has not been well [...]

Capitolunate instability and clinical outcomes after resection of the STT joint in CMC joint arthritis

Ross M, Gilpin D, Peters SE, Gilpin B, and Couzens GB. Journal of Wrist Surgery 2015; 4(S02):A036. DOI: 10.1055/s-0035-1567928. Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether removing the scaphotrapezoid joint (STj) for pantrapezial arthritis when performing a ligament reconstruction and tendon interposition (LRTI) resulted in any increase in carpal instability, compared with [...]
