Title: [Exercise-stable arthrodesis of the area of the wrist joint using bone staplers]. Author: Hess J, Nick HE. Journal: Handchir Mikrochir Plast Chir; 1994 Jan; 26(1):7-11. PubMed ID: 8150391.

Two cases of non-union and one case of partial healing were due to the operative technique, not to the method of fixation.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
