Abstract
Symptomatic malunion of the wrist is one of the most common posttraumatic wrist problems. This study demonstrates three patients with complex malunions of the wrist who benefited from a corrective osteotomy using preplanned 3D-printed patient-specific guides, by experiencing improvement in their wrist function, grip strength and a reduction in pain.
