About Displaced Bone In Wrist
Key Highlights

Restores precise anatomical alignment of wrist bones.Prevents long-term complications like post-traumatic arthritis and chronic instability.Promotes optimal bone healing and reduces the risk of non-union (bone not healing).Allows for earlier mobilization and rehabilitation compared to non-surgical casting alone.Helps regain full strength, range of motion, and function of the wrist and hand.
Who is this surgery for?
- Unstable wrist fractures where bone ends are significantly misaligned (displaced).
- Open fractures where the bone has broken through the skin.
- Intra-articular fractures (extending into the wrist joint surface).
- Failed closed reduction (bones cannot be held in place with a cast).
- Fractures with associated nerve or blood vessel injury (neurovascular compromise).
- Comminuted fractures (bone shattered into multiple pieces).
How to prepare
- Complete medical history review and physical examination by the orthopedic surgeon.
- Diagnostic imaging: X-rays are essential; a CT scan may be ordered for detailed fracture assessment.
- Pre-operative blood tests and possibly an ECG to ensure fitness for anesthesia.
- Discussion of anesthesia options (general, regional block) with the anesthesiologist.
- Informing the surgeon of all medications, supplements, and allergies; may need to stop blood thinners.
- Fasting for 6-8 hours before surgery if general anesthesia is planned.
- Arranging for post-operative assistance and transportation home.
Risks & possible complications
- Infection at the surgical site or in the bone (osteomyelitis).
- Bleeding, bruising, or hematoma formation.
- Damage to surrounding nerves, blood vessels, or tendons.
- Stiffness, reduced range of motion, or complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS).
- Hardware irritation, failure, or the need for future removal.
- Non-union (bone fails to heal) or malunion (bone heals in a poor position).
- Blood clots (deep vein thrombosis) and risks associated with anesthesia.
Recovery & hospital stay
- Initial period involves wearing a splint or cast to protect the surgical repair.
- Elevation of the hand above heart level is crucial for the first few days to reduce swelling.
- Pain is managed with prescribed medications; ice packs help with swelling and discomfort.
- Keeping the surgical dressing clean and dry; watching for signs of infection (redness, fever, pus).
- Early, gentle finger movement exercises are encouraged to prevent stiffness.
- Formal physical therapy typically begins after the initial healing phase (2-6 weeks) to restore strength and mobility.
- Gradual return to normal activities and sports as guided by the surgeon, often over several months.
- Follow-up X-rays are scheduled to monitor bone healing progress.
-

Had my gallbladder out at MGM....
Had my gallbladder out at MGM. Dr. Vinod was really clear about what to expect after. The first couple days were rough, I won't lie, but his team had a good plan for the pain that actually worked. Follow-up was simple, he just told me to take it easy and call if anything felt off. Felt normal again quicker than I thought.
