Arthroscopic debridement and closed pinning for chronic dynamic scapholunate instability.
PURPOSE For chronic dynamic scapholunate (SL) instability (>3 months after injury) open procedures (capsulodesis, limited intercarpal fusions, tenodesis, SL ligament reconstruction) have become popular in recent years but their long-term results have been suboptimal. We evaluated retrospectively the results of aggressive arthroscopic debridement of the SL ligament to bleeding bone in an effort ...
متن کاملScapholunate Instability
Scapholunate instability is the most common carpal instability. The evaluation and treatment of scapholunate instability is controversial and the outcome unpredictable. This article will review the pertinent ligamentous anatomy of the wrist and carpal kinematics. There will be a discussion of the clinical presentation, examination, and diagnostic testing of the patient suspected of having scaph...
متن کاملDorsal wrist capsular tears in association with scapholunate instability: results of an arthroscopic dorsal capsuloplasty.
Purpose The purpose of this study is to report the association of dorsal wrist capsular avulsion with scapholunate ligament instability and to evaluate the results of an arthroscopy-assisted repair. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 10 patients with a mean age of 39.1 years suffering from chronic dorsal wrist pain. They underwent a wrist arthroscopy with an evaluation of the scapholunate liga...
متن کاملScapholunate Instability: Current Concepts in Diagnosis and Management
Injuries to the scapholunate joint [SLJ] are the most frequent cause of carpal instability and account for a considerable degree of wrist dysfunction. It is insufficient to cause abnormal carpal posture or collapse on static radiographs, an isolated injury to the scapholunate interosseous ligament may cause progression to abnormal joint mechanics, cartilage wear, and degenerative changes. Inter...
متن کاملScapholunate instability: current concepts in diagnosis and management.
Injuries to the scapholunate joint are the most frequent cause of carpal instability and account for a considerable degree of wrist dysfunction, lost time from work, and interference with activities. The complex arrangement and kinematics of the 2 rows of carpal bones allows for an enormous degree of physiologic motion, and a hierarchy of primary and secondary ligaments serves to balance an inh...
