[Scapho-lunate ligament reconstruction with Mitek suture anchors. Initial clinical results].

The scapholunate dissociation is an often misjudged lesion of carpal ligaments as clinical and radiological signs often don't allow a clear interpretation. Apart from chronical courses with increasing arthrosis the consequences are limited and more difficult operations. The application of Mitek suture anchors is a new and simple supplement to large-scale operative reconstructions of ligaments or partial arthrodesis. Of nine reconstructions of the scapholunate interosseous ligament using this anchor method so far only one relaps occurred.
