ABSTRACT
Neither the cause nor the correct treatment of Kienbocks disease has been clearly established, but its clinical and radiologic presentations have been distinctly defined. There are many controversies concerning therapeutic guidelines for the treatment of Kienbocks disease. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical result of triscaphe fusion with radial styloidectomy of Kienbocks disease. Ten cases of stage III Kienbocks disease by Lichtmans classification were treated by triscaphe fusion with radial styloidectomy from September 1991 to March 1997. We followed up over 24 months and evaluated clinical results. In all cases, pain was relieved. The postoperative results according to Kuschners method revealed three excellent, six good and one fair. The triscaphe fusion and radial styloidectomy was considered as useful method of treatment which has clinical efficacy in Kienbocks disease.
