Our technical emphasis on free association and other unstructured aspects of the analytic setup tends to minimize awareness of the degree to which both analyst and patient orient around role expectations. Psychoanalysis, like any other recurrent social activity, is conducted under the influence of implicit social roles. Who we are depends on the situation we are in. The goals of treatment were achieved in all patients. All of these dysfunctions were temporary, but mild stiffness persisted in three patients. There were 11 complications, including three temporary deep radial nerve palsies, one sympathetic dystrophy, one malunion, one delayed malunion, two refractures, and three mild loss of motion. In nine patients, the cosmetic improvement made a significant psychologic difference to the patient. Eleven of 12 patients were functionally and cosmetically improved. Bone consolidation was achieved in three to 19 months without the need for bone grafting. The lengthenings ranged from 2 cm to 13 cm (10%-143%). The different types of treatment were: lengthening of the radius alone, lengthening of the ulna alone with or without radial head relocation, lengthening of one-bone forearms, lengthening of the radius and ulna to the same extent, and differential lengthening of the radius and ulna. The Ilizarov technique was used for lengthening 13 forearms in 12 patients. Although problems developed in the early cases, these can be avoided using the methods described and the operation can improve both function and appearance. Pollicization of the index finger was done on twenty-eight occasions. No significant impairment of ulnar growth occurred and straightening of the wrist did not affect function adversely. In three cases wrist deformity recurred mainly in a volar direction, apparently the result of muscle imbalance. Thirty-one of the 117 radial club-hand deformities (in sixty-eight patients) under my personal supervision were treated by centralization of the carpus on the ulna with satisfactory improvement of the deformity.

The anatomical findings and associated congenital abnormalities in the cases known to be related to thalidomide and in those in which thalidomide was not a factor were similar except that the incidence of other skeletal deficiencies was higher in the thalidomide group. Study of the families of thirty-five children with radial club hand suggested that the condition is not genetically patterned. Longer-term follow-up is needed to fully evaluate this procedure.īased on a review of the embryology, genetics, and anatomy of radial club hand, it is suggested that damage to the apical ectoderm on the anterior aspect of a developing limb bud leads to the deformity. The results presented are preliminary but promising. (4) Conclusions: This new version of ulnarization may solve the problem of the ulna growing past the carpus creating a prominent ulnar bump. There were no recurrent radial deviation deformities more than 15° of the HFA. The mean ulna growth was 1.3 cm per year (range 0.2–2 cm). (3) Results: In all 17 patients, the mean HFA (hand–forearm-angle) correction was 68.5° (range 12.2°–88.7°). (2) Methods: Between 20, 22 radial club hands in 17 patients were surgically corrected with this modified version of ulnarization. While still ulnar to the wrist center, the center of the wrist remains ulnar to the ulnar head, with the ulnar head articulating directly with the trapezoid and when present the trapezium. To finally remedy this problem, a third generation of ulnarization was developed to keep the ulnar head contained. (1) Background: Patients treated with the two previous generations of ulnarization developed a bump related to the ulnar head becoming prominent on the radial side of the hand.
