[Carpal bone substitution with silicone prosthesis (author's transl)].
The authors reviewed the development of the carpal bone prosthesis implantations. The advantage of the silicone prostheses type Swanson was described opposed to the metal and acrylic prostheses. Silicone rubber prostheses replacing carpal bones were implanted in 56 cases (30 lunatum, 22 scaphoid, 4 trapezium) with success. To keep the well defined indication conditions is underlined by the authors. They created the home conditions of the carpal bone prostheses manufacturing.
