Review[Palmar radioscapholunate arthrodesis with distal scaphoidectomy].
Radioscapholunate (RSL) arthrodesis with distal scaphoidectomy using an angular stable plate and palmar access in post-traumatic or degenerative osteoarthritis limited to the radiocarpal joint. ⋯ Palmar RSL arthrodesis and distal scaphoidectomy using angular stable plate fixation shows a high union rate and pain relief while maintaining good residual mobility of the wrist.
