Introduction: Various conservative treatments for first carpometacarpal joint osteoarthritis have been reported. We aim to investigate the short-term effectiveness of conservative management interventions used to improve pain and function for adults with first carpometacarpal joint [...]

Couzens GB, Daunt N, Crawford R, and Ross M. ANZ Journal of Surgery 2014; 84: 528-532. DOI: 10.1111/ans.12552 Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is being increasingly utilized to define pathology and guide treatment in patients presenting with wrist pain. The clinical relevance of MRI identified or confirmed pathology has not been established, and the prevalence [...]

DOI: 10.1097/BOT.0000000000000148 Objective: The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the medium-term to longer-term results of type 1 displaced capitellar fractures treated with closed reduction. Design: Retrospective case series. Patients: Eight consecutive cases (7 adults; 1 [...]

DOI: 10.1016/j.jhsa.2013.08.011 Commonly used radiographic parameters that assess distal radius fracture reduction, do not take into account radial translation of the distal fragment, a cause of distal radioulnar joint instability.1 We hypothesized that having a normal radiographic parameter for residual radial [...]

Ross M and Couzens GB Journal of Hand Surgery 2013; 38(10): e51. DOI: 10.1016/j.jhsa.2013.08.081 Hypothesis: Our technique for transosseous scapholunate (SL) ligament (SLL) reconstruction yields reliable and satisfactory results compared with published surgical techniques. Methods: We present a consecutive prospective cohort of patients who had an SLL reconstruction using a technique developed by the authors. [...]
