Description

Wrist replacement, also called Total Wrist Arthroplasty (TWA), is a surgical procedure in which the damaged parts of the wrist joint are replaced with artificial components. It is typically done to relieve pain, restore mobility, and preserve joint function in patients with severe wrist arthritis.Wrist replacement is a good option for patients with severe arthritis who want to retain motion and have lower physical demands. Wrist fusion may be better for younger, physically active individuals needing maximum durability.
