Biomechanical evaluation of the wrist after scaphotrapeziotrapezoid arthrodesis

ConclusionThe current study is the first to present the biomechanical parameters of flexor and extensor muscles of the wrist and fingers in patients after the said procedure. Biomechanical assessments with additional isometric, isotonic, and isokinetic tests provide an opportunity to objectify treatment outcomes and guide appropriate rehabilitation by monitoring its effects.Level of evidenceIII.
