- Pain is refractory to nonsurgical management such as bracing, corticosteroid injection, oral analgesics, NSAIDs, physiotherapy.
Exclusion criteria
- Rheumatoid or other inflammatory arthritis.
- Previous wrist surgery with simultaneous PIN/AIN neurectomy.
- Simultaneous arthritis or symptomatic instability of the distal radio ulnar (DRU) joint on the ipsilateral side.

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Label
Partial denervation of the wrist joint
Arm Description

Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Change in Disability of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand score (DASH)
questionnaire
Secondary Outcome Measures
Change in Patient Related Wrist Evaluation (PRWE)
questionnaire
Change in EQ5D
questionnaire
Change in Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS)
questionnaire. Determines the levels of anxiety and depression. 14 item scale that generates ordinal data. Seven items relate to anxiety and seven to depression. Each item is scored from 0-3, which means that a person can score between 0-21 for either depression or anxiety. A score of 11 or above on either scale in considered to repressent depression or anxiety.
Change in range of motion, grip strength
objective physical function
Change in Sence Of Coherence -13 (SOC13)
Questionnaire
