A wrist implant requires minimal resection of the distal radius and preserves the sigmoid notch and articulation with the head of the distal ulna. The wrist implant generally includes a radius portion, a carpal portion and a carpal ball. The wrist implant includes a primary articulation and a secondary rotational articulation. The primary articulation occurs between the radius portion and the carpal ball. The secondary articulation occurs between the carpal ball and the carpal portion.

1. An implantable wrist prosthesis for implantation in a wrist, the wrist including a distal end of a radius presenting a substantially concave end surface contour and a carpus, the implantable wrist prosthesis comprising: a radius component comprising an articular receiver and an intramedullary stem extending from the articular receiver, the articular receiver having an inner receiver wall and further having an outer receiver wall adapted to substantially conform to the end surface at the distal end of the radius;a carpal plate having a hole and a bone interface surface and a spheroidal protrusion extending outwardly from a side opposite the bone interface surface;a first carpal screw positioned through the hole in the carpal plate, wherein with the carpal plate secured to the carpus and the screw through the hole in the carpal plate, a portion of a head of the first carpal screw stands proud of the carpal plate; anda carpal piece having a first articulation with the radius component and a second articulation with the carpal plate between a spheroidal cavity on the carpal piece and the spheroidal protrusion, wherein the carpal piece includes an excavation into which a screw head extends, the excavation having a perimeter that impinges on the screw head to limit the second articulation of the carpal piece and the carpal plate. 2. The prosthesis of claim 1, further comprising a third articulation between the hole of the carpal plate and a head of the first carpal screw, wherein the third articulation affords polyaxial rotation of the screw relative to the carpal plate. 3. The prosthesis of claim 2, wherein the polyaxial rotation allows for a screw angle of up to about 15 degrees in any direction from perpendicular with the carpal plate. 4. The prosthesis of claim 1, wherein the second articulation is limited to about 10 degrees, or less, total. 5. An implantable wrist prosthesis for implantation in a wrist, the wrist including a distal end of a radius presenting a substantially concave end surface contour and a carpus, the implantable wrist prosthesis comprising: a carpal plate having a hole and a bone interface surface and a spheroidal protrusion extending outwardly from a side opposite the bone interface surface;a first carpal screw positioned through the hole in the carpal plate, wherein the carpal plate secured to the carpus and the screw through the hole in the carpal plate, a portion of a head of the first carpal screw stands proud of the carpal plate; anda carpal ball articulated with the carpal plate, the carpal ball including a spheroidal cavity engaging the spheroidal protrusion through an interference fit, the articulation occurring between the spheroidal protrusion and the spheroidal cavity, the carpal ball including an excavation into which the screw head extends, the excavation having a perimeter that impinges on the screw head to limit the second articulation of the carpal piece and the carpal plate. 6. The prosthesis of claim 5, further comprising a radius component including an articular cup and an intramedullary stem extending from the articular cup, the articular cup having an inner cup wall and further having an outer cup wall that is convexly curved such that the outer cup wall is adapted to substantially conform to the concave end surface contour at the distal end of the radius. 7. The prosthesis of claim 5, wherein the first carpal screw includes a head, wherein the first carpal screw rotates polyaxially relative to the carpal plate with the head positioned within the hole. 8. The prosthesis of claim 7, wherein the polyaxial rotation allows for a screw angle of up to about 15 degrees in any direction from perpendicular with the carpal plate. 9. The prosthesis of claim 5, wherein the second articulation is limited to about 10 degrees, or less, total. 10. An implantable wrist prosthesis comprising: a radius component, the radius component comprising an articular cup having an inner cup wall and further having an outer cup wall, and an intramedullary stem extending outwardly from the outer cup wall;a carpal component including a hole and securable to a carpus;a first carpal screw positioned through the hole in the carpal component positioned through the hole in the carpal component, wherein with the carpal component secured to the carpus and the screw through the hole in the carpal component, a portion of a head of the first carpal screw stands proud of the carpal component; anda carpal ball articulated between the radius component and the carpal component, the carpal ball engaging into the inner cup wall and having at least two degrees of freedom relative to the articular cup, the carpal ball engaging the carpal component and having limited rotational freedom relative to the carpal component, the carpal ball engaging the carpal component via an interference fit between a generally spheroidal protrusion and a generally spheroidal socket, the carpal ball including an excavation into which the screw head extends, the excavation having a perimeter that impinges on the screw head to limit the second articulation of the carpal component and the carpal ball. 11. The prosthesis of claim 10, wherein the first carpal screw includes a head, wherein the first carpal screw rotates polyaxially relative to the carpal component with the head positioned within the hole. 12. The prosthesis of claim 10, wherein the second articulation is limited to about 10 degrees, or less, total.
