PURPOSE: The aim of this prospective multicenter study was to evaluate the long-term outcome of the Herbert ulnar head prosthesis for painful instability of the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) following resection of the ulnar head.
METHODS: Twenty-three patients were treated with a Herbert ulnar head prosthesis in 3 international hand centers. One patient was excluded from the study because a septic prosthesis had to be removed after 3 months. Sixteen of the remaining 22 patients could be assessed at 2 follow-up times, 28 months (range, 10-43 mo) and 11 years and 2 months (range, 97-158 mo) after surgery, for DRUJ stability, forearm rotation, grip strength, pain level (0-10), and satisfaction (0-10). Standardized radiographs of the wrist were evaluated for displacement of the ulnar head and loosening or bony reactions at the sigmoid notch or the ulna shaft.
RESULTS: All patients demonstrated a clinically stable DRUJ at the latest examination, and no patient required further surgery at the DRUJ since the short-term evaluation in 1999. Average pain measured 3.7 before surgery, 1.7 at the short-term follow-up, and 1.7 at the long-term follow-up; patients' satisfaction, 2.2, 8.2, and 8.9; pronation, 73°, 86°, and 83°; supination, 52°, 77°, and 81°; and grip strength, 42%, 72%, and 81% of the unaffected side. All clinical parameters improved significantly from before surgery to the short-term follow-up, with no further statistically significant change between the short-term and long-term follow-up. Radiographs demonstrated no signs of stem loosening or incongruity of the DRUJ.
CONCLUSIONS: The previously reported short-term results with the Herbert prosthesis did not deteriorate in the long term. Reconstruction of the DRUJ with this prosthesis in painful radioulnar impingement following ulnar head resection is a reliable and reproducible procedure with lasting results.
