Treatment of fractures of the wrist bones
Fractures of the wrist bones are a common injury, usually caused by a fall on an outstretched arm or a direct blow. These fractures can cause severe pain, swelling, a change in the shape of the wrist and significantly impair the function of the hand.
Fractures of the wrist bones can be simple or complex, including comminuted fractures and damage to the articular surfaces. It is important to seek medical help immediately if a fracture is suspected for diagnosis and treatment.
In case of complex or displaced fractures, surgical intervention is required — osteosynthesis. Osteosynthesis allows precise fixation of bone fragments using metal structures such as plates, screws and pins. Fractures of the wrist bones can lead to serious complications if they are not treated in a timely and correct manner. Possible complications include chronic pain, improper bone fusion, decreased mobility, and the development of arthritis. Osteosynthesis can effectively prevent these complications.
A general blood and urine test. Coagulogram for the assessment of blood clotting. Radiography or computed tomography (CT) of the wrist. Consultation with an anesthesiologist to choose the optimal method of anesthesia. Examination and consultation with a therapist for an overall assessment of the patient's health.
For simple, non-displaced fractures, a conservative treatment method is used, which includes immobilization of the wrist with a plaster cast to ensure proper bone fusion. In case of displaced or complex fractures, as well as in the presence of a threat to neighboring structures, surgical intervention may be required. The operation may include open reposition and internal fixation of bone fragments using metal plates, screws and pins.
X-ray equipment for intraoperative monitoring. A set of metal clamps (plates, screws, pins) to stabilize bone fragments.
After treatment, the rehabilitation stage begins, aimed at restoring strength, flexibility and functionality of the arm. A rehabilitation program may include physical therapy, physical therapy and exercises to improve coordination and restore wrist motor functions. The duration and intensity of rehabilitation depend on the complexity of the fracture and the individual characteristics of the patient.

Arthrodesis of the joints of the fingers of the hand
The destruction of the joints of the fingers of the hand is accompanied by pronounced pain and impaired functions. Arthrodesis is a surgical intervention in which the affected joint is completely immobilized, which relieves pain and progression of inflammation.
Arthroscopic revision of the cystic joint
The condition of the wrist joints determines the functioning of the hand. Arthroscopic revision is a minimally invasive diagnostic procedure that assesses the condition of the joint tissues, which is necessary for planning subsequent treatment.
Osteosynthesis of the bones of the fingers of the hand
The osteosynthesis of the bones of the fingers of the hand due to the comparison and fixation of the ends of the fragments ensures rapid rehabilitation and proper fusion.
