Abstract
Wrist arthrodesis in spastic patients combined with proximal row carpectomy and ostectomy of the distal radius to allow a position of slight flexion (COF technique) results in a better outcome when compared to arthrodesis after proximal row carpectomy only technique.Level of evidence: III.
