The Swanson silicone prosthesis was one of the first devices to realize total wrist arthroplasty (TWA). It has been used regularly since the early 1960s. This systematic review of the literature evaluated the status quos of TWA. The present study was conducted according to the PRISMA guidelines. A literature search was made in Medline, PubMed, Google Scholar, and the Cochrane Library databases. The focus of the present study was on implant survivorship and related functional outcomes. Data from 2286 TWA (53 studies) were collected. Fifteen studies were included for the analysis of implant survivorship. Fifteen studies were included for the analysis of pain. Twenty-eight studies were included for the analysis of the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) score. Grip strength was tracked in 16 studies. The range of motion (RoM) was evaluated in 46 studies. For supination and pronation, 18 articles were available. Despite some methodological heterogeneities, TWA may be effective and safe in pain reduction and improving function and motion. There is still a range for a future improvement of the procedure.
