Arthroscopic Reinsertion of Acute Injuries of the Scapholunate Ligament Technique and Results

Conclusion The arthroscopic reinsertion and dorsal capsular reinforcement of the SLL, allow a reliable and stable primary repair of the dorsal aspect of the ligament in acute or subacute SL injuries where there is tissue that can potentially be repaired, thus achieving an anatomical repair similar to that obtained with open surgery, but without the complications and stiffness secondary to aggressive interventions on the soft tissues that are inherent to the open dorsal approach.
