Alians - Ulna Shortening Osteotomy
The implants of the Alians Ulna range are intended for ulnar shortening osteotomies in adults. The ulnocarpal conflict may be post-traumatic following a fracture of the distal radius or constitutional. It is due to positive ulnar variance, i.e. the cubitus is too long relative to the radius. This pathology is a common cause of pain in the ulnar side of the wrist and limitation of strength. The intervention consists in performing an osteotomy of the distal radius or shortening of the cubitus at the diaphyseal or metaphyseal level and to stabilise the correction with a stable osteosynthesis using a locking screwed plate. Our instrument Alians Ulna was specially designed to make this surgical technique reproducible, accurate and to decrease surgery time.
