Abstract4-corner arthrodesis is a widely implanted procedure to treat degenerated joints in the wrist such as SLAC and SNAC stage II and III. Arthroscopy in combination with headless cannulated screws, permits reproducing the same intervention with the advantages of a minimally invasive surgery. This technique has already been published in the past supported by the early experience in this new exciting field. The purpose of this paper is to present new technical refinements collected over the years in order to speed up the surgery while obtaining optimum results. In this paper we also present extreme scenarios solved by combining the scope with cannulated screws.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
