Arthroscopic-Assisted Volar Scapholunate Capsulodesis: A New Technique

Hayman Lui et al. J Hand Surg Am. 2022 Nov.

Abstract

Most current surgical techniques for scapholunate interosseous ligament injuries address the dorsal component only. Previously, volar capsulodesis has been described either as an open approach or an "all-inside" technique. In this article, we report an alternative arthroscopic technique to address volar scapholunate interosseous ligament injuries. Arthroscopic-assisted volar scapholunate capsulodesis may be considered in the treatment algorithm for volar scapholunate interosseous ligament injuries.

Keywords: Scapholunate repair; volar SL ligament injury; volar capsulodesis; volar scapholunate interosseous ligament injury; wrist arthroscopy.
