Use of arthroscopy in wrist instabilities
Journal Title: Ortopedia Traumatologia Rehabilitacja - Year 2006, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
Wrist arthroscopy is one of the most important tools in diagnosis of wrist pathologies. This invasive method of diagnosis can provide us a true view of cartilage, ligamentous stability giving also a possibility of dynamic probing. Diagnosis is a first step of the arthroscopy. Then some treatment procedures can be performed. Wrist arthroscopy has emerged as the gold standard for accurate diagnosis of wrist instabilities and has shown promise for some therapeutic values. Many other therapeutic methods are being tested as techniques and equipment are being continuously refined, and its indications are broadening.
