The cost of wrist fusion surgery can vary widely depending on factors such as the location, the specific procedure performed, the healthcare provider, and any additional treatments or services needed. In general, the total cost may include surgeon fees, hospital fees, anesthesia costs, and post-operative care expenses. Patients are advised to consult with their healthcare provider and insurance company to get a more accurate estimate of the costs involved.

There are a total of 16 carpals in the human body, with 8 in each hand. They are located in the wrist area and form the carpus, which is also known as the wrist joint.

Fusion of the radiocarpal joint at 15 degrees can limit wrist flexion and extension, making those movements less flexible or impossible.

Find your pulse is easy and anyone can do it. Take your index and middle finger and place it on your wrist, neck, or any other large blood vessel. Count how many pumps you feel in fifteen seconds then multiple that by 4. Your total will be the amount your heart beats every minute, your pulse.
10 in each wrist - 20 total.
Yes, I have bilateral kienbock's along with osteoarthritis and carpal tunnel. I was originally diagnosed with kienbock's in my right wrist in 1987 and had a bone graft from my illiac bone in my hip to my right wrist in 1988. In 1994 I had a radial shortening osteotomy in my right wrist. I was diagnosed with kienbock's in my left wrist in 2000 but I have not had surgery on that one. jamn289
