| Abstract |
A stable distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) is mandatory for the rotation and load transmission in the forearm and wrist. Salvage procedures such as the Darrach operation, Bowers arthroplasty, and the Kapandji-Sauvé procedure include the potential risk of dynamic radioulnar instability and impingement, despite stabilizing techniques addressing the soft tissues. In an attempt to stabilize the distal forearm mechanically following ulnar head resection, various endoprostheses have been developed to replace the ulnar head. These prostheses can be used for secondary treatment of persistent complaints and unsatisfactory results after ulnar head resection, but also in the primary treatment of osteoarthritis of the DRUJ. Based on promising results concerning improvement in pain, range of motion, and grip strength, with proper indications ulnar head prostheses should be considered as a valuable treatment option for osteoarthritis of the DRUJ. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 24 May 2018.
All research outputs
#22,767,715
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Die Orthopädie
#276
of 678 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#302,276
of 344,113 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Die Orthopädie
#4
of 29 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 678 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 1.5. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 344,113 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 29 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
