Abstract

Background

We know that tears of the Triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) can cause DRUJ instability and ulnar sided wrist pain. This study shows the clinical result of patients who had arthroscopic transosseous repair of the TFCC tear with DRUJ instability. Arthroscopic repair of TFCC tear is a promising, minimally invasive surgical technique especially in patients with DRUJ instability.

Materials and methods

Fifteen patients who underwent TFCC one tunnel repair form 2018–2021 were reviewed retrospectively in hospital. The proximal component of TFCC was repaired through arthroscopic one- tunnel transosseous suture technique. VAS score for pain, wrist range of motion, grip strength and post operative complications were evaluated and each patient was rated according to the DASH score.
