Abstract [en]
We examined the learning curve of Motec total wrist arthroplasty (TWA) of six experienced surgeons in their first 30 cases. Three times more complications/revisions were encountered in the first half of the study compared with the second half. Motec TWA surgery should be concentrated in a smaller number of centres performing higher volumes.
