Abstract

Case: A 58-year-old woman underwent delayed fixation of an unstable distal radius fracture. At staged hardware removal, an isolated rupture of extensor carpi radialis brevis (ECRB) was discovered and tenodesed to extensor carpi radialis longus acutely. The surgical intervention allowed her to return to gardening at 2 weeks after the hardware removal with preserved function and pain control at 13-month follow-up, respectively.

Conclusion: We present a rare complication of isolated abrasive ECRB rupture with an intra-articular distal radius fracture treated with a late decision for surgery. Our surgical intervention resolved the patient's pain and preserved function in this case.

期刊介绍： JBJS Case Connector helps improve patient care by providing the medical community with a journal that harnesses technology to provide information tools for discovery and reporting of unusual musculoskeletal problems, findings, treatment, and outcomes. Co-edited by Thomas W. Bauer, MD, PhD, and Ronald W. Lindsey, MD, JBJS Case Connector assists orthopaedic surgeons in the search for precedents, connections, and trends in their efforts to improve patient care. Using this unique journal, surgeons can find the commonalities between cases, benefit from the experience of their peers, and filter case information by many important variables in order to provide the best possible care for orthopaedic patients. This cross-referenced online journal includes thousands of orthopaedic case reports. It compiles symptoms, conditions, and demographic details to empower surgeons to find cases similar to theirs. Surgeons can mine the database to reveal emerging trends and identify patterns, distinguishing between truly rare cases and repeated, related single instances of a larger problem. The JBJS Case Connector Image Quiz feature provides interactive quizzes based on images from content published by JBJS and includes a discussion area for further exploration of ideas and concepts. The JBJS Image Quiz app for iPad and iPhone is available in the App Store. Contributions to JBJS Case Connector are welcomed from anywhere in the world and are considered on their merits.
