Patients were offered either implant removal combined with total wrist denervation (combined group) or isolated implant removal (isolated group). The primary endpoint was a comparison between groups of the postoperative Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (QuickDASH) and visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores at 1 year. The secondary outcomes were the comparison of the postoperative range of motion (ROM), grip strength and complications.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Overall, 35 patients were included. In the combined group, the QuickDASH and VAS scores were significantly improved at 1 year from 45.5 (IQR: 38.6 to 50.0) to 18.2 (IQR: 13.6 to 27.3) and from 4.8 (SD 1.1) to 1.6 (SD 1.4), respectively. In the isolated group, no significant improvement in the QuickDASH nor in VAS was found. At 1 year, patients in the combined group had a significantly lower QuickDASH score, lower VAS scores and improved grip strength compared with patients in the isolated group. There was no difference between the groups regarding ROM and number of complications.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The addition of total wrist denervation during implant removal appears to offer substantial symptom relief and improved function in this population.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Level of evidence:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>III<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/17531934261425115","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,18]],"date-time":"2026-03-18T05:18:36Z","timestamp":1773811116000},"page":"1138-1144","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Implant removal combined with total wrist denervation for painful intra-articular distal radial malunions: a prospective study"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"51","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-7085-748X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Camille","family":"Brenac","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Hospices Civils de Lyon, H\u00f4pital Croix Rousse, Service de Chirurgie Plastique, Esth\u00e9tique et R\u00e9paratrice, France"},{"name":"Hospices Civils de Lyon, H\u00f4pital Edouard-Herriot, Centre de traitement des br\u00fbl\u00e9s Pierre-Colson, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Najib","family":"Kachouh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Assistance Publique des H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, H\u00f4pital Timone, Service de Chirurgie de la Main et reconstruction de membres, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arnaud","family":"Walch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hospices Civils de Lyon, H\u00f4pital Edouard-Herriot, Service de Chirurgie de la Main et du Membre Sup\u00e9rieur, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marie","family":"Witters","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Assistance Publique des H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, H\u00f4pital Timone, Service de Chirurgie de la Main et reconstruction de membres, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alice","family":"Mayoly","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Assistance Publique des H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, H\u00f4pital Timone, Service de Chirurgie de la Main et reconstruction de membres, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jean Baptiste","family":"de Villeneuve Bargemon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Assistance Publique des H\u00f4pitaux de Marseille, H\u00f4pital Timone, Service de Chirurgie de la Main et reconstruction de membres, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/JBJS.17.00107"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_1","article-title":"Development of the QuickDASH: comparison of three item-reduction approaches","volume":"87","author":"Beaton DE","year":"2005","unstructured":"Beaton DE, Wright JG, Katz JN, Upper Extremity Collaborative Group.
