Ulnaprothese zur Wiederherstellung der UnterarmumwendebewegungUlnar prosthesis to restore forearm turning movement

Bei Personen mit funktioneilen Störungen im distalen Radioulnargelenk (DRUG) gibt es derzeit drei Standardverfahren, um eine Verbesserung der Unterarmumwendebewegung zu erreichen:In individuals with functional disorders of the distal radioulnar joint (DRUG), there are currently three standard procedures to improve the forearm turning movement:

1. Ulnakopfhemiresektion nach Bowers, sowie1. Ulnar head hemiresection according to Bowers, as well as

2. Arthrodese des DRUG mit Segmentresektion aus der Ulna nach Kapandji-Sauve.2. Arthrodesis of the DRUG with segmental resection from the ulna according to Kapandji-Sauve.

3. Ulnakopfprothese3. Ulnar head prosthesis

Da es nach der Segmentresektion aus der Ulna nach dem Prinzip von Kapandji-Sauve häufig zu Beschwerden durch ein instabiles, proximales Ellenende kommt sowie eine Atrophie der Knochenstümpfe mit konsekutiver Irritation des-Hautweichteilmantelsdurch.zu.spitzes.Auslaufender^Knochenenden.auftreten-kann.Jstder-Einsatz^ einer stabilisierenden Prothese zu rechtfertigen. Eine weitere unerwünschte Wirkung die durch den Einsatz der Prothese vermieden werden kann, ist die einseitige Belastung der radialen Säule des Radiokarpalgelenkes. Vorzeitige Arthrose in der Fossa scaphoidea soll dadurch vermieden werden.Since after segment resection from the ulna according to the Kapandji-Sauve principle, there are often complaints due to an unstable, proximal end of the ulna, and atrophy of the bone stumps with subsequent irritation of the skin and soft tissue can occur due to the bone ends tapering too sharply, the use of a stabilizing prosthesis is justified. Another undesirable effect that can be avoided by using the prosthesis is the one-sided loading of the radial column of the radiocarpal joint. This should prevent premature arthrosis in the scaphoid fossa.

Die Prothese besteht aus insgesamt zwei Komponenten. An der distalen Komponente, Fig. 1 a) Querschnitt, Fig. 1 b) Ansicht von vorne, Fig. 3 Ansicht von unten, ist ein Führungsstab, der in den proximalen Prothesenteil eingeführt wird, an einer Winkelplatte Fig. 1 (2) befestigt. Über die Winkelplatte Fig. 1 (2) erfolgt die Arthrodese des betroffenen DRUG mit Hilfe einer Schraube sowie eines Kirschnerdrahtes Fig. 5 (7). Die Platte selbst wird über eine weitere Schraube an der Ulna befestigt (Fig. 5).The prosthesis consists of two components. On the distal component, Fig. 1 a) cross section, Fig. 1 b) front view, Fig. 3 view from below, a guide rod is attached to an angle plate Fig. 1 (2) that is inserted into the proximal part of the prosthesis. The arthrodesis of the affected DRUG is carried out via the angle plate Fig. 1 (2) using a screw and a Kirschner wire Fig. 5 (7). The plate itself is attached to the ulna using another screw (Fig. 5).

Der proximale Prothesenanteil, Fig. 2 a) Querschnitt, Fig. 2 b) Ansicht von vorne, besteht ebenfalls aus einer Winkelplatte Fig. 2 (2) an deren distalen Ende der eigentliche Gelenkkörper in einem zylindrischen Käfig Fig. 2 (3) verankert ist. Der Gelenkkörper besteht aus einer Gelenkpfanne Fig. 2 (4) sowie einem kongruenten Gelenkkopf Fig. 2 (5). In den Gelenkkopf ist die Führungshülse Fig. 2 (6) für den Führungsstab Fig. 1 (1) der distalen Prothesenkomponente eingelassen. Der Stab Fig. 1 (1) kann in der Hülse Fig. 2 (6) gleiten, um den bei Pro- und Supination auftretenden Längenwechsel zwischen Radius und Ulna zu ermöglichen. Das Gelenk selbst läßt zwar eine volle Rotation um die eigene Achse, jedoch nur eine geringe Abweichung in der Längsachse zu. Durch die Gelenkform wird einerseits ein Anschlagen des Führungsstabes Fig. 1 (1) an den Käfig Fig. 2 (3), andererseits eine zu große Verschiebung des proximalen und distalen Ellenanteils in der Horizontalen vermieden. Die Winkelplatte Fig. 2 (2) des proximalen Prothesenanteils wird über drei bis vier Schrauben an der Ulna fixiert (Fig. 5).The proximal part of the prosthesis, Fig. 2 a) cross section, Fig. 2 b) front view, also consists of an angle plate Fig. 2 (2) at the distal end of which the actual joint body is anchored in a cylindrical cage Fig. 2 (3). The joint body consists of a joint socket Fig. 2 (4) and a congruent joint head Fig. 2 (5). The guide sleeve Fig. 2 (6) for the guide rod Fig. 1 (1) of the distal prosthesis component is embedded in the joint head. The rod Fig. 1 (1) can slide in the sleeve Fig. 2 (6) to enable the change in length between the radius and ulna that occurs during pronation and supination. The joint itself allows full rotation about its own axis, but only a slight deviation in the longitudinal axis. The shape of the joint prevents the guide rod Fig. 1 (1) from hitting the cage Fig. 2 (3) and prevents the proximal and distal parts of the ulna from shifting too much horizontally. The angle plate Fig. 2 (2) of the proximal part of the prosthesis is fixed to the ulna using three to four screws (Fig. 5).

Implantation der Prothese:Implantation of the prosthesis:

Nach Freipräparieren der Elle werden über eine Bohrschablone (Fig. 4) die Eintrittspforten der einzubringenden Schrauben und des K-Drahtes Fig. 5 (7) markiert. Ebenso werden die Landmarken hinsichtlich der Länge des zu resezierenden Ellenanteils gesetzt.After freeing the ulna, the entry points for the screws and the K-wire (Fig. 5 (7)) to be inserted are marked using a drilling template (Fig. 4). Landmarks are also set with regard to the length of the ulna portion to be resected.

Vorteil:Advantage:

1. Eine immer stattfindende Rotation zwischen proximalem und distalem Ellenende nach Osteotomie spielt für den weiteren Verlauf der Operation keine Rolle mehr.1. A constant rotation between the proximal and distal end of the ulna after osteotomy no longer plays a role in the further course of the operation.

2. Die Prothese kann paßgenau eingesetzt werden.2. The prosthesis can be inserted with a precise fit.

3. Die Prothese kann in Supinationsstellung eingebaut werden.3. The prosthesis can be installed in supination position.

Vorteil gegenüber einer eventuell zu überlegenden intramedullären Fixation des proximalen Prothesenanteils: Durch die Fixation der Winkelplatten Fig. 1(2) und Fig. 2 (2) mit Hilfe von Schrauben wird, anders als bei einem osteointegrativen intramedullären Verfahren, schneller Übungsstabilität erreicht.Advantage over a possible intramedullary fixation of the proximal part of the prosthesis: By fixing the angle plates Fig. 1(2) and Fig. 2 (2) with the help of screws, exercise stability is achieved more quickly, unlike with an osteointegrative intramedullary procedure.
