    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Musculoskeletal Imaging

    Background:

    • Wrist pain and dysfunction are common complaints.
    • Accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment.
    • Arthroscopy is an evolving minimally invasive technique.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To identify and evaluate safe and advantageous portals for wrist arthroscopy.
    • To correlate laboratory findings with clinical application.
    • To refine a reproducible surgical technique for wrist arthroscopy.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized 35 cadaveric wrist specimens to develop arthroscopic portals.
    • Correlated cadaveric findings with 35 clinical cases.
    • Employed blunt subcutaneous dissection to protect nerves.

    Main Results:

    • Identified seven useful portals: five in the radiocarpal joint, one in the midcarpal joint, and one in the distal radioulnar joint.
    • Demonstrated excellent intraoperative perspectives.
    • Established a reproducible surgical technique.

    Conclusions:

    • Wrist arthroscopy is a valuable tool for evaluating wrist pain and dysfunction.
    • Understanding detailed wrist anatomy is essential for successful arthroscopy.
    • The described portals and techniques enhance safety and visualization.
