Abstract
1. The results of excision of the distal end of the ulna in eighty-six wrists of seventy patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis are presented. 2. There was relief of pain in 93 per cent and restoration of full rotation in 87 per cent. 3. Further destructive changes of the radio-carpal joint were seen in 85 per cent, but these did not affect the good clinical results.
