[Clinical experiences with Wilhelm's method of wrist joint denervation].
Wrist joint denervation for treatment of painful arthrosis was carried out in 36 patients in the last five years. 33 Patients could be followed up. Besides subjective reports on pain and maximum stress, strength, mobility and the X-ray of the wrist-joint were also considered in the evaluation of the results. As a whole, a success rate of 84% could be attained. We have not observed disorders of sensitivity or trophic alterations. An increase of symptoms after the second postoperative year was noteworthy.
