Our goal was to evaluate the clinical outcomes and effects of third CMC joint arthrodesis compared with bridging the CMC joint during TWF. A retrospective chart review was performed. Outcomes assessed included hardware loosening, hardware failure, symptomatic hardware necessitating removal, and need for revision arthrodesis.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Case Description\/Literature Review\u2003We found that concomitant third CMC joint arthrodesis was associated with a significantly reduced rate of radiocarpal and midcarpal joint nonunion, hardware loosening, and symptomatic hardware removal when compared to bridging of the CMC joint. There was no significant difference in hardware failure rates or the need for revision arthrodesis.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Clinical Relevance\u2003When using a contoured dorsal spanning plate,
