ABSTRACT
The aims of this study were to retrospectively assess the occurrence of complications or need for secondary wrist procedures after the Sauvé-Kapandji procedure, and to prospectively assess patient-reported outcomes at long-term follow-up. All patients treated with the Sauvé-Kapandji procedure in our tertiary referral hospital between January 2008 and September 2021 were identified and contacted to complete the Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand and the Patient-Rated Wrist/Hand Evaluation outcome measures. In total, 30 patients, with a median follow-up of 82 months, were included in this study. Complications occurred in 6 of 30 patients, which resulted in six secondary wrist procedures. Mean Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand and Patient-Rated Wrist/Hand Evaluation scores were 30.1 and 33.6, respectively. We conclude that in respect of long-term outcomes, the Sauvé-Kapandji procedure can still be deemed to be a useful procedure, especially in patients with few other reconstructive options.Level of evidence IV.
