[Exercise-stable arthrodesis of the area of the wrist joint using bone staplers]
1Abteilung für Plastische Chirurgie und Handchirurgie, St. Antonius-Hospital Eschweiler.
Abstract:
In 32 of 40 cases of limited wrist fusion using bone staples, immobilization after wound healing was unnecessary. In 27 of 30 controlled cases, we found adequate bone healing. Two cases of non-union and one case of partial healing were due to the operative technique, not to the method of fixation.
