| الوصف: | Malunion of thumb and finger fractures causes problems in the cosmetic and functional aspects of the hand. Malunion of phalangeal fractures usually manifests as a combination of rotational deformities in the coronal, sagittal, and transverse planes, and corrective osteotomy is performed on the planes that cause these problems. Quantification of the deformity is essential for precise osteotomy and is difficult to perform in the transverse plane, even with radiography or computed tomography. Thus, we developed a technique called linkage simulation for the quantitative measurement of rotational deformities for surgical planning. In this procedure, finger extension and flexion can be simulated based on the predicted rotational axis of the joint, which is useful for determining the appropriate correction. Furthermore, by performing a reduction simulation in the software, it is possible to simulate the surgery and predict the postoperative results. This paper reports the details of this technique. |
