摘要:
Kienbock's disease is a rare condition in the pediatric age group, with little agreement on its natural history and the best treatment option. Typically, these patients present with vague wrist pain and a variable degree of joint motion restriction. Diagnosis is mainly based on clinical suspicion and MRI findings, as radiographs do not show significant changes in the early stages of the disease. Prognosis is better in children than in adults due to the good healing capacity in this age group.This study will report on an 11-year-old boy diagnosed with Kienbock's disease who underwent surgical treatment to temporarily offload the diseased lunate. Clinical and radiographic recovery was observed at the six-month follow-up.
