A Case of Implant Failure in Partial Wrist Fusion Applying Magnesium-Based Headless Bone Screws
This article presents a case of implant failure resulting in mechanical instability of a scaphotrapezotrapezoideal arthrodesis using magnesium-based headless bone screws. During revision surgery osteolysis surrounding the screws was observed as well as degraded screw threads already in existence at...
