Abstract

Objective: To summarize the research progress of the artificial wrist joint prosthesis.

Methods: Domestic and abroad literature concerning artificial wrist joint prosthesis was reviewed and analyzed thoroughly.

Results: Artificial wrist joint prosthesis has been developed to the 4th generation. The artificial wrist joint arthroplasty has advantages of pain relief and functional improvement and can achieve ideal short-term effectiveness. But there are some problems, such as loosening, subsidence, fracture, and dislocation of prosthesis. The long-term effectiveness of the 3rd and 4th generation prosthesis still need to be followed up.

Conclusion: The biomechanics of wrist joint is extremely complicated, which results in less application and slow development of artificial wrist joint prosthesis. Early-term effectiveness of artificial wrist joint arthroplasty is basically satisfactory, but there are still some long-term complications. So the artificial wrist joint prosthesis remains to be developed.

目的: 总结人工腕关节假体的研究进展。.

方法: 查阅国内外人工腕关节假体相关研究,并进行总结分析。.

结果: 人工腕关节假体目前已发展至第 4 代,临床应用于治疗腕关节疾病,可有效缓解疼痛、改善功能,但仍然存在假体松动、下沉、断裂、脱位等问题。而且第 3、4 代假体仍缺少中远期随访结果。.

结论: 由于腕关节生物力学复杂,人工腕关节假体临床应用较少,置换术后早期疗效较满意,但仍然存在远期并发症,有待进一步研究发展。.

Keywords: Artificial wrist joint replacement; joint prosthesis material; wrist joint prosthesis.
