Abstract

This retrospective review of midcarpal arthrodesis was undertaken between July 1985 and March 1990. Fourteen patients were identified and 11 were available for follow-up evaluation. Mean follow-up time was 66 months (range, 48-102 months). Four patients eventually underwent total wrist arthrodesis due to continued pain. Seven patients improved and each returned to work between 3 and 4 months after surgery. Wrist motion was 50% and grip strength 65% of the normal side. Midcarpal arthrodesis has a predictable fusion rate; however, it does not reliably relieve pain.

摘要

本次对腕中关节融合术的回顾性研究于1985年7月至1990年3月期间进行。共确定了14例患者，其中11例可进行随访评估。平均随访时间为66个月（范围48 - 102个月）。4例患者因持续疼痛最终接受了全腕关节融合术。7例患者病情改善，术后3至4个月均恢复工作。腕关节活动度为健侧的50%，握力为健侧的65%。腕中关节融合术有可预测的融合率；然而，它并不能可靠地缓解疼痛。
