Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Hand Surgery
  • Musculoskeletal Disorders

Background:

  • Proximal row carpectomy (PRC) is a surgical procedure for degenerative carpal disorders.
  • Modern alternatives like wrist arthroplasty and arthrodesis have increasingly replaced PRC.
  • The continued indication for PRC requires re-evaluation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the current indications and efficacy of proximal row carpectomy (PRC).
  • To determine if PRC is still a viable surgical option for degenerative wrist conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 14 patients who underwent PRC.
  • Study period: June 1996 to June 2013 (18 years).
  • PRC was sometimes combined with capsular flaps and/or osteochondral grafts.

Main Results:

  • PRC demonstrated satisfactory functional recovery in patients.
  • Significant regression of pain was observed post-surgery.
  • The procedure, with or without adjuncts, proved effective in selected cases.

Conclusions:

  • Proximal row carpectomy (PRC) is a valid and simple procedure for selected patients with degenerative carpal disorders.
  • PRC ensures satisfactory functional outcomes and pain reduction.
  • The technique remains a relevant surgical option in contemporary practice.
