Evaluation of Staple Watson Wrist Arthrodesis

When the wrist is damaged, for traumatic or degenerative reasons, the cartilage is worn out and the bones rub together: this is osteoarthritis. In order to stop this pain, it may be necessary to block these bones from each other, sacrificing mobility to achieve indolence. Multiple techniques are described according to the type of osteoarthritis and for each type of osteoarthritis itself, but the principle remains the same. The methods currently commonly proposed are the staple and the screwed plate. The aim of the study is to evaluate the surgical practice of the Orthopaedics and Traumatology department of the University Hospital of Rennes, and its long-term results, as this type of surgery is intended to be definitive.
