Pain, impaired functioning, poor satisfaction and diminished health status eight years following perilunate (fracture) dislocations

Purpose: Perilunate (fracture) dislocations are rare injuries and diminished functional outcomes are reported. However, Patient Reported Outcomes (PROs) following these injuries are rarely described. The aim of this study was to investigate the long-term impact of perilunate (fracture) dislocations using a range of measures, including pain, function, and quality of life. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2016 until March 2016. Eleven patients who had suffered from perilunate (fracture) dislocations between August 1996 and January 2014 were matched on... Mehr ...

Purpose: Perilunate (fracture) dislocations are rare injuries and diminished functional outcomes are reported. However, Patient Reported Outcomes (PROs) following these injuries are rarely described. The aim of this study was to investigate the long-term impact of perilunate (fracture) dislocations using a range of measures, including pain, function, and quality of life. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2016 until March 2016. Eleven patients who had suffered from perilunate (fracture) dislocations between August 1996 and January 2014 were matched on age and gender with 22 healthy controls. Functional outcome included range of motion and grip strength measurements. The Patient Reported Outcomes included: Patient Reported Wrist Evaluation, Disability of Arm, Shoulder and Hand questionnaire, Michigan Hand Questionnaire and the Short Form-36. Results: The 11 patients that were included (9 males) had a median age at injury of 38 years (IQR 33; 54) and median follow up of 97 months (IQR 84-193). Flexion/extension (mean difference −60°, 95% CI −76, −43, p < 0.001) and ulnar/radial deviation (mean difference −28°, 95% CI −38, −18, p < 0.001) were significantly diminished in patients following perilunate (fracture) dislocations. Grip strength was not affected. The patients experienced significantly more pain as assessed on all pain subscales. Physical functioning was significantly worse in the group with perilunate (fracture) dislocations as assessed on all function subscales, except the PRWE function score and the subscale physical functioning of the Short Form-36. Satisfaction as measured with the Michigan Hand Questionnaire satisfaction subscale (mean difference −36, 95% CI −57, −16, p = 0.002) was also reported poorer. No difference was found regarding work participation. Conclusions: A perilunate (fracture) dislocation has a significant impact on everyday life, as patients experience diminished range of motion, pain, diminished physical functioning, diminished ...
