Scapholunate Repair Surgical Technique-orthopaedic Solutions – Hand & Wrist – Specialties – Hand & Wrist Procedures-medical-equipment-south-africa

The Scaphoid and Lunate bones are conjoined through an intra-articular ligament known as the Scapholunate. This ligament is responsible for coordinated movement of the lunate and scaphoid bones facilitating smooth rotation of the wrist¹. For surgical treatment, small joint anchors can be used to repair or reconstruct the scapholunate joint upon tearing.

• All-in-one delivery system eliminates unnecessary steps and extra time
• Unique anchor deployment technology allows for shallow 10mm tunnel
• Strong fixation with less bone removal and no hard anchors left behind
