Suggest Treatment For Kienbock S Disease
I have been recently diagnosed with Kienbock s Disease. i am a 65 year old female. As a result of this condition 2 of the bones in my right wrist have died. I am trying to get a second opinion but I have been unsuccessful finding someone who is knowledgable with this rare disease. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Delores Lobbato

hi Delores..
hope this msg finds u in good health
kienbocks is rare disease affecting no 2 bone i.e lunate of wrisits due to blood supply cut off
if d scan.xray shows that d bone has completely died.. u need to remove d bone surgically or else it will damage d surrounding bones as well
Nothing to worry about
thanks Take care god bless
