Timing and treatment options for carpal injuries and their outcomes. A systematic review. Implications Treatment delays of 7 to 45 days, outcomes are inferior to those in the acute setting Acute setting, CRIF seems to offer better outcomes than ORIF. Chronic (>45 days) lesser arc peri lunate injuries - worst results PLFD injuries - ORIF has superior results CRIF group for PLFD and PLD no evidence inferior to the ORIF group. CRIF without repair of the SL and LT did not show inferior results as compared with the ORIF studies which repaired the SL and LT ligaments Treatment of peri lunate injuries in a delayed (7–45 days) or chronic (> 45 days) ORIF or a salvage procedures like PRC or wrist arthrodesis.
