Hand Clinics, 2005
Total wrist arthroplasty preserves motion and improves hand function for daily tasks and lower-demand vocational and a vocational activities. It is often preferable to fusion when both wrists are arthritic. Newer prosthetic designs provide a functional range of motion, better wrist balance,reduced risk of loosening, and better implant stability than ...

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 1998
Although arthroplasty is a well-established procedure for many joints, its use in the wrist is less common, and the indications are less well defined. The standard procedure for the painful arthritic wrist remains radiocarpal arthrodesis. However, as technology and surgical procedures improve, wrist arthroplasty is being used more frequently.

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2017
Total wrist arthroplasty using current design implants has evolved into a fairly predictable procedure for rheumatoid, osteoarthritic, and posttraumatic patients. Although complications can occur, the incidence of these has dropped over the past decade with implant design modifications. The article summarizes the current use of total wrist arthroplasty

Operative Techniques in Orthopaedics, 2020
Surgical management of end stage wrist joint arthropathy includes wrist arthrodesis as well as motion sparing procedures such as partial arthrodesis techniques and total wrist arthroplasty. Total wrist arthroplasty components have evolved in distinct generations since their introduction in the 1970s.

Uncemented total wrist arthroplasty
The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1995We report our experience with a non-cemented wrist implant we developed in 1986. Between 1986 and 1991, 50 prostheses were implanted in 45 patients, 33 with rheumatoid arthritis and 12 with traumatic arthritis. After an average of 4.5 years (range, 2-6 years), we evaluated pain, daily activities, motion, grip strength, and x-ray films. The results were

Biaxial total-wrist arthroplasty
The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1996Sixty-four consecutive biaxial total wrist arthroplasties performed in 52 patients between March 1983 and June 1988 were reviewed. Fifty-seven cases involving 45 patients were followed for a minimum of 5 years or until failure. Of the remaining 7 patients, 6 had died and 1 was lost to follow-up study.

Revision total wrist arthroplasty
The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1993Biaxial design total wrist arthroplasty was used to salvage 13 failed total wrist arthroplasties of various designs. After a follow-up period of 31 months, two wrists had undergone further prosthetic revision for loosening and one wrist was arthrodesed. In the remaining 10 wrists, 8 had no pain, 1 had mild pain, and 1 had moderate pain.

Wrist Arthrodesis for Failed Total Wrist Arthroplasty
The Journal of Hand Surgery, 2016Treatment options for failed total wrist arthroplasty include implant revision, resection arthroplasty, and arthrodesis. Variable results associated with different techniques have been reported for arthrodesis and the procedure has substantial technical challenges, including restoration of wrist height, obtaining stable fixation, and achieving bony ...

Hand Clinics, 2013
Although arthrodesis is the treatment preferred by most surgeons for severe wrist arthritis, some degree of functional impairment occurs from the resulting loss of motion, especially when multiple joints in the extremity are affected by arthritis. Total wrist arthroplasty may enhance the performance of daily activities and it is usually preferred by ...
