The treatment of lesions of the intrinsic ligaments of the wrist has always been a challenge for surgeons. Stability, scapholunate or distal radioulnar joints, was possibly obtained by conventional open surgical methods, but at the cost of severe stiffness in flexion for scapholunate lesions. This impeded the possibility of recovery in high-level athletes, for example. Since the development of wrist artroscopy in general and the creation of EWAS in particular, the understanding and treatment of these lesions has been reversed. In recent years, we have developed precise, efficient and reproducible techniques that allow the stability and preservation of normal wrist movements. In this article we present the indications, techniques and outcomes of arthroscopic repair of scapholunate ligament.
