Abstract
Wrist arthroscopy plays a valuable role in the management of scapholunate instability. A spectrum of injuries can occur to the scapholunate interosseous ligament, which may be difficult to detect with imaging studies. Wrist arthroscopy enables detection and management of injury to the scapholunate ligament under bright light and magnified conditions, in both acute and chronic situations.Keywords
