  • Title: On resection of the proximal carpal row.
    Author: Neviaser RJ.
    Journal: Clin Orthop Relat Res; 1986 Jan; (202):12-5. PubMed ID: 3955939.
    Abstract:
    Thirty-one patients (30 men and one woman) ranging from 19 to 64 years of age underwent proximal row carpectomy for posttraumatic arthrosis of the carpus. The injuries included transscaphoid perilunate dislocations with late subluxation and arthritis, ununited scaphoid fractures with arthritis, scapholunate dissociations with arthritis, and acute carpal injuries, including dislocations and comminuted fractures. The follow-up period ranged from two to 12 years. Wrist motion and grip strength were satisfactory. There were two failures, both of which converted to wrist arthrodesis.
