Total Wrist Replacement

Optimal relief through total wrist replacement

Total wrist replacement is a surgical procedure that involves replacing the damaged or diseased wrist joint with an artificial joint. This procedure is typically performed in patients who have severe arthritis or other conditions that have caused significant damage to the wrist joint. The distal radius, which is the bone at the end of the forearm, is also replaced along with the carpus, which is the group of small bones in the wrist. The artificial joint is designed to mimic the natural movement of the wrist joint, allowing patients to regain mobility and reduce pain.
