Overview

Prospective longitudinal multicenter observational cohort study conducted on a population of patients who underwent ligamentoplasty for scapholunate instability and agreed to be followed for a period of five years from the day of hospital discharge.

Interventions

  • Procedure Dorsal ligamentoplasty reinforced with an internal brace
    After a longitudinal dorsal incision of the wrist, an ECRB (extensor carpi radialis brevis) or palmaris longus hemi-tendon is harvested. The scapholunate positioning is adjusted using joystick pins. A 2.5 mm blind tunnel is made in the lunate and two 2.5 mm blind tunnels are made in the proximal and distal poles of the scaphoid. The tendon graft is threaded using a fiberloop and reinforced with suture tape. The graft is fixed in the proximal pole of the scaphoid with a swive-lock anchor (Arthrex
