29 Current Concepts in Wrist Arthritis VuMedi Webinar June 30, 2014 MIDCARPAL HEMIARTHROPLASTY FOR WRIST ARTHRITIS: 3 year results and update Scott Wolfe, MD, Greg Packer, MD; Joseph J. Crisco, Ph.D Hospital for Special Surgery, New York Weill Medical College of Cornell University Rhode Island Hospital, Brown University Medical Center Southend University Hospital, Southend-on-Sea, England DISCLAIMER Royalty and consulting fees received from Extremity Medical, Inc. Parsippany NJ Wrist hemiarthroplasty is not FDA approved for use in the United States INTRODUCTION Wrist Arthritis Debilitating condition Goal is a painless, stable joint Preserving ROM is ideal Etiology Varies SNAC / SLAC wrist Posttraumatic OA Kienböck's Disease Inflammatory arthritis 1

30 TRADITIONAL TREATMENTS Salvage Operations Ablative Styloidectomy Distal scaphoidectomy PRC Arthrodesis 4CF, RSL fusion Total wrist fusion? ARTHRODESIS Provides a stable, pain-free platform for hand function Supported by several excellent studies But not without issue Nonunion Hardware complications Loss of motion WRIST ARTHROPLASTY First described by Swanson, 1973 Motion preserving alternative to fusion Distal component failure Continues to plague modern designs 2

31 WRIST HEMIARTHROPLASTY Rationale - Avoids issue of distal component loosening - Minimal activity restrictions - Appropriate for younger pts (SLAC/SNAC, posttaumatic OA) - Satisfactory early outcomes Boyer, J.S., Adams, B.D.: Iowa Orthop. J: 2010 WRIST HEMIARTHROPLASTY Mid term outcomes worrisome - N = 10, avg f/u 19 months - High rate of complications - Polyethylene erosion - Aseptic osteolysis 30% - Capitate bone spur - Contracture 30% Culp,R.W., et al. J.Wrist Surg. 1(1): 2012 MIDCARPAL HEMIARTHROPLASTY KinematX prosthesis Anatomic design Preserves midcarpal joint Coupled Motion Maintains wrist anatomic center of rotation Ligament sparing (dorsal and palmar) Preserves radial subchondral plate, DRUJ PRC/Hemi Midcarpal Hemi 3

32 DART-THROWER S MOTION Coupled motion Radial extension to ulnar flexion Utilized in many recreational & occupational activities Does not coincide with anatomic axes of F/E, RD/UD Moritomo et al. Crisco, JJ et al., JBJS 2005 & YR Update PURPOSE Update early results and complications of wrist midcarpal hemiarthroplasty for wrist arthritis METHODS KinematX implanted in 20 patients beginning Feb SLAC (10), posttraumatic OA (6), Inflammatory arthritis (3), Kienböck s (1) Avg age 50.6 yrs (range, 23-74) Prospective data collection Mayo, DASH, ROM, grip, xrays Mean follow-up 48 wks (range, ) KinematX Midcarpal Hemi-arthroplasty 10 cm midline incision Surgical technique 4

33 KinematX Midcarpal Hemi-arthroplasty Anatomic ligament-preserving approach Proximal based ligament-sparing rectangular capsular flap is raised. PIN is spared. A wafer of the dorsal triquetrum is raised with the flap to protect the DRT and DIC ligament insertions Surgical technique KinematX Midcarpal Hemi-arthroplasty Proximal row carpectomy Surgical technique KinematX Midcarpal Hemi-arthroplasty Exposure Surgical technique 5

34 KinematX Midcarpal Hemi-arthroplasty Elliptical power rasp removes cartilage and SL ridge, preserves subchondral bone Surgical technique KinematX Midcarpal Hemi-arthroplasty Midline canal finder Surgical technique KinematX Midcarpal Hemi-arthroplasty Box cutter prepares canal for broaching Surgical technique 6

35 KinematX Midcarpal Hemi-arthroplasty Broach to size Surgical technique KinematX Midcarpal Hemi-arthroplasty Trial component Surgical technique KinematX Midcarpal Hemi-arthroplasty Reduction Surgical technique 7

36 KinematX Midcarpal Hemi-arthroplasty Trial range of motion Surgical technique KinematX Midcarpal Hemi-arthroplasty Final prosthesis press-fit Surgical technique KinematX Midcarpal Hemi-arthroplasty Fluoro films Surgical technique 8

37 RESULTS RESULTS Mean total surgery time = 53 min (range: 41-65) PRE-OP POST-OP SIGNIFICANCE MAYO SCORE DASH F-E ARC (DEGREES) R-U ARC (DEGREES) GRIP (KG) GRIP (% OPPOSITE SIDE) RESULTS Mean total surgery time = 53 min (range, 41-65) PRE-OP POST-OP SIGNIFICANCE MAYO SCORE DASH F-E ARC (DEGREES) R-U ARC (DEGREES) GRIP (KG) n.s. GRIP (% OPPOSITE SIDE) 64% 96% n.s. 9

38 RESULTS Worse results in the three inflammatory patients Perhaps due to unrecognized synovitis or distal carpal erosion When 3 pts with inflammatory arthritis excluded, ROM increased further Flexion-Extension (p < 0.04) Radio-ulnar Deviation (p < 0.04) COMPLICATIONS Stiffness Manipulation under anesthesia: 4 patients 2 SLAC, 1 OA, 1 inflammatory > 50 degree gain of FE No component loosening, revision, infection Patient #1 108 weeks DASH 0.0 Grip 85% FE 82% 10

39 MIDCARPAL HEMIARTHROPLASTY Novel technique, 3 years experience Maintains coupled wrist ROM Avoids complications associated with distal component Preliminary results demonstrate: Technique is safe and promising Improves motion, function Low complication profile Procedure may be better suited for posttraumatic patients Current Concepts in Wrist Arthritis VuMedi Webinar June 30, 2014 Thank you 11
