Keywords:
orthopedic surgery, patient satisfaction, pain management, single bone technique, Forearm reconstructionAbstract
Background: Forearm fractures and large bone defects challenge orthopedic surgery due to their impact on crucial limb functions. Single bone forearm reconstruction offers a promising solution by potentially reducing pain and improving patient satisfaction.
Methods: This prospective study involved 30 patients who underwent single bone forearm reconstruction, assessing outcomes over a minimum follow-up of 12 months. Pain levels were measured using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), and patient satisfaction was evaluated through direct feedback.
Results: The majority of patients reported significant pain reduction, with 73.33% indicating no pain postoperatively. Patient satisfaction was high, reflecting the effectiveness of the surgical approach in restoring limb function and reducing discomfort.
Conclusion: Single bone forearm reconstruction is an effective strategy for managing large forearm defects, achieving substantial pain reduction and high levels of patient satisfaction.
