Surgical management and postoperative functional recovery of distal ulna tumors: a case report and literature review
In this case, the distal ulna tumor segment was extensively resected without reconstruction or prosthetic implantation. The patient had good wrist joint function in the short term. Different surgical methods for distal ulna resection impact the recovery of wrist joint function in patients. However, as all the literature reviews involved short- to medium-term follow-ups, longer-term follow-up may be needed to observe the recovery of wrist joint function at different time points in patients.
