Daugherty T, Sawyer J, Gillin T, Abbasi P, Yohe G, Higgins J, et al.
J Hand Surg Am . 2024 Oct; PMID: 39396359
Purpose: Surgeons may shorten the forearm for many indications. We quantified the impact of shortening on finger flexion with a cadaver model. Methods: Ten fresh cadaver proximal forearms were pinned...

Imbergamo C, Dahl A, Macaraeg C, Giladi A, Higgins J
J Hand Surg Am . 2024 Jun; 49(9):857-866. PMID: 38934986
Purpose: Patients with Kienbock disease can present with coronal fracture and collapse of the proximal lunate (Unified B2/Bain grade 1, 2B). Traditionally, this was considered unsalvageable. However, medial femoral trochlea...

Plast Reconstr Surg . 2023 Mar; 152(2):293e-299e. PMID: 36912922
Background: Which treatments patients continue to use more than 1 year after primary thumb carpometacarpal arthritis surgery, and how such use relates to patient-reported outcomes, is largely unknown. Methods: The...
