Abstract
AbstractThere is a general consensus that the pathogenesis for Kienböck’s disease remains uncertain, though it is probably related to nonphysiologic stress transmission across the lunate, acting in concert with one of several possible vascular abnormalities. Most surgical treatments focus on mechanical aspects rather than real physiopathology, but in the recent years several articles have shown the utility of vascularized grafts in the treatment of Kienböck’s disease, especially in its early stages. The authors present a case of a successfully reconstruction of a IIIA stage Kienböck’s disease with an osteochondral vascularized graft from medial femoral condyle.
