So then I understand the result of the surgery is to make it full-open rather than partial-open, but what's the purpose? Purely aesthetic? Or will there be a performance gain?

I'll be able to get more use out of it. My wrist itself is fused so I cant move it all that much. My wrist use to be in a bent back position, so it was fused back in 2010 to give me better function

my right thumb and index finger. I had a severe bone infection when I was 7 and they had to be amputated. So they finally have permanent prosthetics that screw into your bone rather than slip on suction ones

Oh nice, glad youll have something better.
