Research output: PhD ThesisPhd-Thesis - Research and graduation internal

Abstract

The distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) is vital for multiple activities of daily life. A malunited distal radius fracture or hereditary disease can lead to osteoarthritis. In this instance the last treatment where a functional joint remains is arthroplasty. During a surgical procedure the joint is replaced by an implant. Unfortunately, the most prevalent implant is suspected to change the forearm’s
