Abstract

Recent advances in arthroscopic surgery techniques and instrumentation have enabled the surgeon to improve the treatment of wrist pathology. The arthroscopist can now perform a proximal row carpectomy or radial styloidectomy with minimal dissection and potentially less morbidity. The surgery requires a high level of skill from the surgeon. This is an area of medicine that is still evolving. Long-term studies are lacking but short-term results are promising. In the near future, the role of arthroscopy will better be defined as more research becomes available.
