Metal-on-metal disease (MOMD) is a rare condition following arthroplasty and has predominantly been reported following hip and knee replacement. Isolated case reports exist with respect to MOMD following total wrist arthroplasty-however, the literature remains limited. Here, we present the history and radiographic and histopathologic features of such a case, and summarize the literature and provide management recommendations.
