Abstract
Arthrosis and autoimmune arthritis frequently lead to major impairment of hand function. Primary therapy consists of well- tried conservative treatments and joint preserving surgical options for special indications. In advanced stages silicon spacers remain the gold standard surgical option for replacement of proximal interphalangeal and metacarpophalgeal joints of the fingers. Alternatively, surface replacement prostheses can restore the biomechanical properties of these joints more porperly. In case of the carpometacarpal (CMC) joint of the thumb, arthroplasty is gaining popularity as modern implants show excellent mid-term outcome. Although current forth generation implants for wrist replacement are promising, total wrist arthroplasty is currently reserved for exceptional indications.

Safety and efficacy of a novel three-dimensional printed microporous titanium prosthesis for total wrist arthroplasty in the treatment of end-stage wrist arthritis. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 10:1119720. [PMID: 36704301 PMCID: PMC9871302 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2022.1119720] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2022] [Accepted: 12/22/2022] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Total wrist arthroplasty is an effective treatment for end-stage wrist arthritis from all causes. However, wrist prostheses are still prone to complications such as prosthesis loosening and periprosthetic fractures after total wrist arthroplasty. This may be due to the wrist prosthesis imprecise matching with patient's bone. In this study, we designed and developed a personalized three-dimensional printed microporous titanium artificial wrist prosthesis (3DMT-Wrist) for the treatment of end-stage wrist joint, and investigated its safety and effectiveness. Methods: Total wrist arthroplasty was performed using 3DMT-Wrist in 14 cases of arthritis between February 2019 and December 2021. Preoperative and postoperative visual analog scale scores, QuickDASH scores, wrist range of motion, and wrist grip strength were evaluated. Data were statistically analyzed using the paired samples t-test. Results: After 19.7 ± 10.7 months of follow-up, visual analog scale decreased from 66.3 ± 8.9 to 6.7 ± 4.4, QuickDASH scores decreased from 47.4 ± 7.3 to 28.2 ± 7.6, grip strength increased from 5.6 ± 1.4 to 17.0 ± 3.3 kg. The range of motion improved significantly in palmar flexion (30.1° ± 4.9° to 44.9° ± 6.5°), dorsal extension (15.7° ± 3.9° to 25.8° ± 3.3°), ulnar deviation (12.2° ± 3.9° to 20.2° ± 4.3°) and radial deviation (8.2° ± 2.3° to 16.2 ± 3.1). No dislocation or loosening of the prosthetic wrist joint was observed. Conclusion: Total wrist arthroplasty using 3DMT-Wrist is a safe and effective new treatment for various types of end-stage wrist arthritis; it offers excellent pain relief and maintains the range of motion.

Abstract
Wrist endoprosthesis is still an exceptional indication compared to the prosthesis of large joints, especially when a rescue surgery procedure of the wrist is no longer possible and the complete wrist arthrodesis is to be considered the ultima ratio. However, a suspended function in the wrist is accompanied by a significant restriction in the patient`s daily life. Using the fourth-generation endoprosthesis, the situation regarding long-term results for the hand has already improved. This means that a durability of more than 6 years is no longer a rarity. Defect situations in joints, in particular those which occur after tumor, still pose a greater challenge. If autologous reconstructions cannot be performed, custom-made prostheses can be considered as very rare indications for joint reconstruction. While these have been used for years on large joints such as shoulder, elbow, knee and hip, they have only been described on the hand in particular cases. We report the 10-year follow-up of implantation of a custom-made wrist prothesis (UNI-2™, KMI, Germany) in a 36-year-old patient with tumorous destruction of the distal radius by a giant cell tumor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Wrist arthroplasty is still an exceptional indication in the field of hand surgery. In recent years, it has become increasingly accepted as an alternative to wrist arthrodesis as the ultima ratio for panarthrosis or similar destruction of the wrist. In particular, the patient's desire for functional integrity also plays an important role. COMPLICATIONS While there were often complications with earlier prosthesis designs of the older generations and only a short survival rate could be achieved, this has improved, if the indication of the so-called fourth generation prostheses is done properly. Survival rates of over 10 years are no longer uncommon, even without revision operations. Currently, the indication for hemiarthroplasty has been increasing, particularly in the case of post-traumatic destruction. Those who are seriously interested in endoprosthesis should also be able to treat the associated complications. The present article is intended to provide an overview of common or potential complications in the context of wrist arthroplasty and to demonstrate possible solutions by presenting case studies. The basics of primary implantation are, therefore, not discussed. Reference is made to further literature.

Abstract
Indications for surgical treatment of distal radius fractures (DRF) remain controversial in the literature, especially in elderly patients. Complication rates after operatively treated DRF are low and well documented. These include malunion, degenerative osteoarthritis in the radiocarpal joint and subsequently pain and impaired hand function. If conservative treatment fails then salvage procedures are necessary. This review summarizes the therapeutic options available to treat degenerative osteoarthritis after malunited distal radius fractures, regardless of the initial operative or conservative treatment.
