Abstract
Twenty-five wrist arthrodesis procedures were performed on 24 patients, applying a modification of Gill’s technique, which used a corticocancellous strut graft from the distal radius. Patients were followed up until solid bony fusion was established. Union was achieved in 21 of 25 wrists and was subsequently achieved with a further procedure in the remaining four wrists. We have found that the modified Gill’s technique is a reliable, simple procedure with a low complication rate which does not require the harvest of a distant bone graft.
