Reconstructing distal ulna for improved arm mobility
Reconstruction of the distal ulna or radioulnar joint with soft tissue is a medical procedure that involves repairing or replacing damaged or injured bones and tissues in the lower arm. This procedure is typically performed to restore function and mobility to the wrist and hand. The surgeon may use a variety of techniques, such as bone grafting, tendon transfer, or joint replacement, depending on the extent of the damage and the patient’s individual needs. The goal of the procedure is to improve the patient’s quality of life and reduce pain and disability associated with the injury or condition.
