Abstract
BACKGROUND In late Kienbӧck's, the lunate is fully fragmented and nonreconstructible. Replacing the lunate with a pyrocarbon prosthesis preserves load distribution and avoids carpectomy or fusion, but leaves the wrist intrinsically unstable, requiring additional soft-tissue stabilization techniques. METHODS Five men and 7 women with a mean age of 43 (±15) years underwent prosthetic replacement of the lunate with dual bundle scaphoid-triquetrum tenodesis for carpal stabilization. The mean follow-up interval from initial surgery was 9.1 (±1.7) years. Outcomes were Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) score, revision or conversion surgery, and wrist range of motion. RESULTS The mean DASH score was 8.9 (±7.1). No patients reported any additional revision or conversion surgery. The mean wrist flexion was 60° (±14°); wrist extension was 45° (±21°). CONCLUSIONS Clinical outcomes proved more favorable than anticipated, particularly the self-rated outcomes scores and the absence of any revision or conversion surgery.

Abstract
Deep-learning (DL) algorithms have the potential to change medical image classification and diagnostics in the coming decade. Delayed diagnosis and treatment of avascular necrosis (AVN) of the lunate may have a detrimental effect on patient hand function. The aim of this study was to use a segmentation-based DL model to diagnose AVN of the lunate from wrist postero-anterior radiographs. A total of 319 radiographs of the diseased lunate and 1228 control radiographs were gathered from Helsinki University Central Hospital database. Of these, 10% were separated to form a test set for model validation. MRI confirmed the absence of disease. In cases of AVN of the lunate, a hand surgeon at Helsinki University Hospital validated the accurate diagnosis using either MRI or radiography. For detection of AVN, the model had a sensitivity of 93.33% (95% confidence interval (CI) 77.93-99.18%), specificity of 93.28% (95% CI 87.18-97.05%), and accuracy of 93.28% (95% CI 87.99-96.73%). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.94 (95% CI 0.88-0.99). Compared to three clinical experts, the DL model had better AUC than one clinical expert and only one expert had higher accuracy than the DL model. The results were otherwise similar between the model and clinical experts. Our DL model performed well and may be a future beneficial tool for screening of AVN of the lunate.

Abstract
Kienbock disease, or avascular necrosis of the lunate, is an uncommon cause of a painful and stiff wrist. Management options range from conservative treatment in the form of immobilization and corticosteroid injections to a wide variety of surgical treatments that depend on the structural integrity of the lunate, intercarpal relationships, and the condition of the articular cartilage of the wrist. A particularly difficult problem lies in the management of young patient in whom vascularized bone grafting of the lunate has failed but in whom arthritis has not yet developed. Pyrocarbon lunate implant arthroplasty is a newer treatment option for such a patient, and allows the preservation of the remainder of the proximal carpal row while directly addressing the degenerative lunate. This article describes the evidence and surgical technique for lunate implant arthroplasty and presents an illustrative case example.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Kienböck's disease is idiopathic lunate avascular necrosis, which may lead to lunate collapse, abnormal carpal motion and wrist arthritis. The current study aimed to assess the outcomes of treating stage IIIA Kienböck's disease by a novel technique of limited carpal fusion via partial lunate excision with preservation of the proximal lunate surface and scapho-luno-capitate (SLC) fusion. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a prospective study of patients with grade IIIA Kienböck's disease managed with a novel technique of limited carpal fusion comprising SLC fusion with preservation of the proximal lunate articular cartilage. Autologous iliac crest bone grafting and K-wires fixation were used to enhance the osteosynthesis of the SLC fusion. The minimum follow-up period was 1 year. A visual analog scale (VAS) and the Mayo Wrist Score were utilized for the evaluation of patient residual pain and functional assessment, respectively. A digital Smedley dynamometer was used to measure the grip strength. The modified carpal height ratio (MCHR) was used for monitoring carpal collapse. The radioscaphoid angle, scapholunate angle, and the modified carpal-ulnar distance ratio were used for the assessment of carpal bones alignment and ulnar translocation of carpal bones. RESULTS This study included 20 patients with a mean age of 27.9 ± 5.5 years. At the last follow-up, the mean range of flexion/extension range of motion (% of normal side) improved from 52.8 ± 5.4% to 65.7 ± 11.1%, P = 0.002, the mean grip strength (% of normal side) improved from 54.6 ± 11.8% to 88.3 ± 12.4%, P = 0.001, the mean Mayo Wrist Score improved from 41.5 ± 8.2 to 81 ± 9.2, P = 0.002, and the mean VAS score reduced from 6.1 ± 1.6 to 0.6 ± 0.4, P = 0.004. The mean follow-up MCHR improved from 1.46 ± 0.11 to 1.59 ± 0.34, P = 0.112. The mean radioscaphoid angle improved from 63 ± 10º to 49 ± 6º, P = 0.011. The mean scapholunate angle increased from 32 ± 6º to 47 ± 8º, P = 0.004. The mean modified carpal-ulnar distance ratio was preserved and none of the patients developed ulnar translocation of the carpal bones. Radiological union was achieved in all patients. CONCLUSIONS Scapho-luno-capitate fusion with partial lunate excision and preservation of the proximal lunate surface is a valuable option for treating stage IIIA Kienböck's disease, with satisfactory outcomes. Level of evidence Level IV. Trial registration Not applicable.

Abstract
Kienbock's disease is a progressive condition characterized by lunate collapse, carpal instability, and eventually perilunate arthritis. Etiology is likely multifactorial, including vascular and anatomic or osseus causes. In cases of advanced disease, disabling pain, limited motion, and decreased grip strength may be present. The preferred treatment options for the nonreconstructable wrist are proximal row carpectomy (PRC), total wrist arthrodesis, and total wrist arthroplasty (TWA). In the following chapter, we will discuss various surgical options for patients with advanced Kienbock's disease.

Abstract
The algorithm and rationale described is a reflection of our own surgical experience for this challenging disorder and can be compared with other publications. Our algorithm has evolved from treatment of a large volume of patients with Kienböck disease in a referral practice. However, it is limited to the management that we have found logical, effective, and within our scope of experience. The treatment guidelines for our specialty as a whole will evolve as our understanding of the etiology and our ability to quantify efficacy improves.

Abstract
PURPOSE Scaphotrapeziotrapezoid (STT) arthrodesis surgery is used for various types of wrist pathologies. The objective of our study was to perform a systematic review of complications and outcomes after STT arthrodesis. METHODS Several major databases were used to perform a systematic literature review in order to obtain articles reporting complications and outcomes following STT arthrodesis. The primary purpose was to identify rates of nonunion and conversion to total wrist arthrodesis. Secondary outcomes included wrist range of motion, grip strength, and Disabilities of the Arm Shoulder and Hand scores. A multivariable analysis was performed to evaluate factors associated with the primary and secondary outcomes of interest. RESULTS Out of the 854 records identified in the primary literature search, 30 studies were included in the analysis. A total of 1,429 procedures were performed for 1,404 patients. The pooled nonunion rate was 6.3% (95% CI, 3.5-9.9) and the rate of conversion to total wrist arthrodesis following the index STT was 4.2% (95% CI, 2.2-6.7). The mean pooled wrist flexion was 40.7° (95% CI, 30.8-50.5) and extension was 49.7° (95% CI, 43.5-55.8). At final follow-up, the mean pooled grip strength was 75.9% (95% CI, 69.3-82.5) of the nonsurgical contralateral hand. Compared with all other known indications, Kienbock disease had a statistically significant lower nonunion rate (14.1% vs 3.3%, respectively). Mixed-effects linear regression using patient-level data revealed that increasing age was significantly associated with complications, independent of occupation and diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrated a low failure rate and conversion to total wrist arthrodesis after STT arthrodesis and acceptable postoperative wrist range of motion and strength when compared to the contralateral hand. TYPE OF STUDY/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic IV.

Abstract
Kienböck's disease is best understood as a continuous interaction between compromised perfusion and structural deterioration that transitions from an early phase to a late phase. Existing literature has failed to identify any one superior treatment for Kienböck's; many studies even demonstrate no advantage for surgery compared with the natural history. Surgical interventions for early and transitional Kienböck's are designed to preserve or reconstruct the lunate. However, in most studies, the only tool used to assess the lunate itself has been plain radiography that neither reveals critical architectural details (demonstrated by computed tomographic scan) nor the vascular status (demonstrated by magnetic resonance imaging). Most articles, therefore, do not adequately define the preoperative status of the lunate or its alteration through surgical intervention. Critical preoperative features that are best demonstrated by these advanced imaging studies have specific anatomic and physiologic relationships that better correspond with certain surgical interventions, which also pair better with specific patient characteristics. This review explains how to identify, analyze, and strategically match these variables with the treatment interventions available for Kienböck's patients through the early, transitional, and late phases of the disease.

Abstract
AbstractKienböck's disease is a clinical-radiological condition that can permanently affect wrist functionality and the patient's quality of life. Proper, pertinent diagnosis and treatment are required to avoid salvage procedures. Arthroscopic techniques have emerged as an important tool for the treatment of certain stages of the disease.We present a review of the literature and propose a treatment algorithm according to the stage of the disease, including arthroscopic techniques. We detail the surgical technique of arthroscopic scaphocapitate arthrodesis, and the functional outcomes obtained by our group.

Abstract
Background Kienböck's disease leading to progressive carpal collapse alters the wrist biomechanics leading to early arthritis and degenerative changes. Out of multiple surgical procedures present, no gold standard has been described. Scaphocapitate arthrodesis (SCA) is limited carpal fusion which shifts the loading axis toward radioscaphoid joint. This study presents the midterm clinical and radiological results of SCA in Kienböck's disease. Materials and Methods The data were reviewed from January 2016 to December 2017. Lichtman's classification used to stage the disease. Clinical variables were noted for wrist range of motion, grip strength, visual analog scale (VAS) score, quick disabilities of the arm, shoulder, and hand (quickDASH), and patient-rated wrist evaluation (PRWE) scores. Radiographs were evaluated for union, ulnar variance, carpal height ratio, radioscaphoid angle, and scapholunate angle. Results A total of 11 patients of Stage IIIA and IIIB Kienböck's disease with mean age of 24 years were included in the study with a minimum of 18 months of clinical follow-up. The procedure resulted in decreased ranges of motion but improved grip strength (26.09 ± 4.76 from 19.54 ± 4.63 kgf) and reduced pain with VAS score decreased from 7.36 ± 0.8 to 2 ± 1. Radiographic analysis showed union in all patients, reduced carpal height with a corrected radioscaphoid angle (from 62.12 to 48.3 degrees), and scapholunate angle (from 34 to 26.27 degrees). Discussion SCA has advantage of technical ease of orientation of the scaphoid and osteosynthesis of only one intercarpal joint with a large contact surface. Coupling the distal and proximal carpal rows results in significant loss of mean wrist range of motion but with improved grip strength, shifting the load away from the radiolunate joint. However, long-term studies are needed for clinical benefits and radiographic signs of radioscaphoid arthritis for the treatment of advanced-stage Kienböck's disease. Level of Evidence This is a Level IV, retrospective observational study.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to describe the radiographic, functional, and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) of medial femoral trochlea osteochondral free flap reconstruction of the proximal lunate in stage IIIA and IIIB Kienböck disease. METHODS Eighteen adult patients underwent medial femoral trochlea reconstruction of the proximal lunate for advanced Kienböck disease by a single surgeon. Eight of these patients returned for clinical examination, radiographs, and completion of PRO questionnaires. An additional 4 patients completed PRO questionnaires remotely. RESULTS The mean patient age was 28.4 years. The mean radiographic and physical examination follow-up was 1.4 and 2.2 years, respectively. The mean PRO follow-up was 2.1 years. Radiographic measurements (carpal height ratio, radioscaphoid angle) demonstrated that carpal collapse was halted, and carpal alignment was maintained, after surgery. Wrist flexion (38.3°) and extension (37.3°) were unchanged by this operation, and postoperative pinch and grip strength were 90% and 68% of the uninjured side, respectively. The mean postoperative Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand score was 10.8, and the Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation score was 18.1. Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcomes Score subscales, International Knee Documentation Committee, and Kujala lower extremity PRO scores ranged from 83.1 to 96.8. The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Global Health, Physical Function, Pain Intensity, Pain Interference, and Pain Behavior scores reflected good postoperative patient health and function and low pain levels. CONCLUSIONS Following medial femoral trochlea reconstruction of the proximal lunate for advanced Kienböck disease, we observed a cessation of radiocarpal collapse. After surgery, patients demonstrated acceptable levels of function, pain, and wrist range of motion. TYPE OF STUDY/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic V.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Scaphocapitate arthrodesis with lunate excision was performed for treatment of advanced Kienböck disease in 17 patients (18 wrists). Ten were women and seven men. Five were Lichtmann Stage IIIA, 12 Stage IIIB, and one Stage IV. Minimum follow-up period was 24 months; mean follow-up was 10.7 years (range 2.3 to 22 years, SD 7.1). At the latest follow-up, six patients were very satisfied, nine were satisfied and two were disappointed. Pain was significantly decreased in all cases. Wrist mobility was unchanged. Grip strength was significantly increased. Consolidation of the arthrodesis was confirmed in 17 wrists. We encountered a scaphocapitate nonunion at 12 years follow-up and two cases of styloscaphoid arthritis at 17 and 22 years. Scaphocapitate arthrodesis with lunate excision performed in an advanced stage of Kienböck disease significantly alleviates pain, while preserving functional mobility and satisfactory grip strength in the long term.

Abstract
Stage IIIc Kienböck's disease is a clinical challenge to treat collapse of the lunate bone. A new reconstructive surgery was described in one patient using 3D printing lunate prosthesis. The prosthesis shape was designed by tomographic image processing and segmentation using technology compared with the intact side matched by mirror symmetry and 3D post-processing technologies. The patient recovered nearly full range of motion of the wrist after 12 months. The visual analog scale scores and Cooney scores were 2 points and 91 points. We demonstrated that an anatomical reconstruction to Kienböck's Disease is possible using 3D printing lunate prosthesis.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to compare functional results before and after lunatum excision and scaphocapitate arthrodesis (SCA) using an angular stable circular plate in patients with Lichtman's stage IIIB Kienböck's disease. METHODS The study included nine patients (six females and three males) with a mean age of 33.2 ± 11 years (range: 18-54 years). Clinical and radiological assessment before and after surgery included wrist extension and flexion, range of motion and grip strength, visual analogue scale (VAS) score to assess pain, modified Mayo wrist scores, and measurements of the scapholunate (SL) angle and modified carpal height ratio. RESULTS The mean follow-up period was 17.33 ± 4.69 months (range: 12-24 months), mean operation time was 56.67 ± 12.5 min (range: 45-75 min) and mean hospitalization time was 3.44 ± 1.13 days (range: 2-6 days). Preoperative mean wrist extension was 23.89° ± 4.17°, mean wrist flexion was 32.22° ± 5.07°, mean grip strength compared to the healthy side was 34% (range: 28-37%) and mean VAS score was 7.6 (range: 7-8). Modified Mayo wrist scores were poor in all of the nine patients. Post-operative mean wrist extension was 27.78° ± 4.41°, mean wrist flexion was 40.56° ± 4.64°, mean grip strength compared to the healthy side was 71% (range: 63-81%) and mean VAS score was recorded as 1.4 (range: 1-2). Modified Mayo wrist scores were good in five and moderate in four patients. No patients had non-union or additional surgery. CONCLUSION Lunatum excision and SCA using angular stable circular plate fixation provide pain relief with acceptable preservation of the range of motion.
