          Abstract

          Antecedentes: La incidencia de heridas por proyectil de arma de fuego en mano de pacientes civiles se ha incrementado en los últimos años, lo cual es causa de incapacidades prolongadas o definitivas con un impacto personal, social y económico. Las lesiones severas de mano incluyen: afección del arco palmar mayor, fractura de dos o más huesos del carpo, luxaciones palmares irreductibles, fracturas articulares de radio distal y lesiones neurovasculares, los cuales requieren de múltiples procedimientos quirúrgicos para el manejo de tejidos blandos y musculoesqueléticos. Métodos: Se describe el reporte de un paciente con fractura de los huesos del carpo derecho, expuestos grados IIIB de Gustillo y Anderson por proyectil de arma de fuego, el cual fue tratado con artrodesis del carpo mediante injerto sintético, fijación externa y rotación de colgajo fasciocutáneo. Resultados: Paciente que fue sometido a tratamiento quirúrgico de la lesión del carpo consistente en fractura de todos los huesos del carpo, expuestos grados IIIB de Gustillo y Anderson por proyectil de arma de fuego quien fue sometido a tratamiento quirúrgico mediante artrodesis del carpo con injerto sintético, estabilización con fijador externo y cobertura con colgajo fasciocutáneo, obteniendo una evolución clínica mediante la escala de DASH con un score de 14.2 y Michigan Hand score de 70 puntos con un seguimiento de 12 meses. Conclusiones: El tratamiento con fijación externa más artrodesis del carpo con injerto sintético y cobertura cutánea con colgajo proporcionó un resultado funcional bueno para un paciente con lesión por proyectil de arma de fuego.

          Background: The incidence of hand gunshot wounds in civil patients has increased in recent years; it causes long-term or permanent disability and has a personal, social and economic impact. Severe hand injuries include: involvement of the greater palmar arch, fracture of two or more carpal bones, irreducible palmar dislocations, articular fractures of the distal radius, and neurovascular injuries. All of these injuries require multiple surgical procedures for the management of soft and musculoskeletal tissues. Methods: We report the case of a patient with a Gustilo and Anderson grade IIIB open fracture of the right carpal bones caused by a gunshot projectile. He was treated with arthrodesis of the carpus using a synthetic graft, external fixation and rotation of a fasciocutaneous flap. Results: The patient underwent surgical treatment of the carpal injury that consisted of Gustilo and Anderson grade IIIB open fracture of all carpal bones caused by a gunshot projectile. Surgery included arthrodesis of the carpus with a synthetic graft, stabilization with an external fixator, and a fasciocutaneous graft as skin cover. The clinical course according to the DASH scale had a score of 14.2 and the Michigan Hand score was 70, with a 12-month follow-up. Conclusions: Treatment with external fixation plus arthrodesis of the carpus with a synthetic graft and skin cover using a flap provided a good functional result in a patient who sustained a gunshot wound.

              ChronOS inject in children with benign bone lesions--does it increase the healing rate?

              Benign bone lesions in children although rare, can result in a pathological fracture. Although their etiology and pathogenesis are not yet entirely clear, the phenomenon of spontaneous healing is well known. Nevertheless, some benign bone lesions are unlikely to heal spontaneously due to the patient's age or high risk of fracture and deformity due to the lesion's location or size. The following study presents our results after treatment of these bone cysts with chronOS Inject.
