RESUMO
CASE: We report the case of 2 patients presenting with advanced isolated radiolunate arthritis with limited wrist strength and range of motion (ROM). After failure of conservative therapy, both patients underwent lunate excision and scaphocapitate and triquetrohamate joints fusion using compression headless screws. Improved functional outcomes are reported at 4 years of follow-up with painless wrists and increased grip strength and ROM. CONCLUSIONS: Lunate excision and partial bicolumnar wrist fusion lead to increased grip strength and wrist ROM. This is a unique alternative for people suffering isolated radiolunate osteoarthritis, for which no standard surgical care exists.
