Traumatic Volar Carpal Instability Nondissociative: A Case Series.
Journal of hand surgery global online. 2023 November
Carpal instability nondissociative (CIND) involves disruption between carpal rows from injury to extrinsic and intrinsic wrist ligaments. CIND traumatic (CINDT) highlights the posttraumatic etiology of some of these cases and has been gaining increasing attention in the literature. We present four cases of CINDT-volar intercalated segmental instability (VISI). We diagnosed two adults with distal radius fractures and two adolescents with Galeazzi fractures, all treated surgically, who developed CINDT-VISI with radiolunate angles greater than 15° at 2 weeks after surgery. One adult had progressive deformity but was asymptomatic at 33 months. The other underwent volar capsular release at 1 year to improve alignment. One adolescent with a fixed deformity required soft tissue releases and temporary pinning to restore alignment at 7 months. We treated the other successfully with early physiotherapy. No patient had radiographic signs of arthritis at 1-2 years. This is the first reported association between Galeazzi fractures and CINDT-VISI. Contrary to existing literature, we report successful outcomes with nonsurgical and delayed nonfusion surgery of CINDT-VISI.
