  1. Chronic Intercarpal Instability Courtesy of Leon Benson

  2. Goals • To review the evaluation and management of patients who have symptomatic, chronic carpal instability

  3. Definitions • Dynamic instability - (incomplete injury) maintains normal alignment at rest but will collapse under applied load • Static Instability - (complete injury) abnormal intercarpal alignment on static radiographs

  4. Definitions • Carpal Instability – Dissociative: Instability occurs between the individual bones. • Carpal Instability – Non-Dissociative: Instability occurs between the row of bones

  5. Stability • 2 Moments • Flexion moment-Scaphoid • Extension Moment- Hamate and capitate to the Triquetrum Courtesy of Leon S. Benson, MD

  6. Conflicting Moments • Scaphoid- Palmar flexes Courtesy of Leon S. Benson, MD

  7. Conflicting Moments • Triquetrum Dorsiflexes • Takes lunate with it Courtesy of Leon S. Benson, MD

  8. Fate of the Lunate • Lunate-Majority of boney moments are in Flexion Courtesy of Leon S. Benson, MD

  9. Fate of the Lunate Will follow the scaphoid into extension Courtesy of Leon S. Benson, MD Courtesy of Leon S. Benson, MD

  10. DISI • Release Lunate from the Scaphoid • Dorsiflexes with the triquetrum • Increases SL and CL angle Courtesy of Leon S. Benson, MD

  11. Unleash the lunate from the triquetrum Follows the scaphoid VISI Courtesy of Leon S. Benson, MD

  12. Mid-Carpal Instability • Dissociation between the Proximal and the Distal Rows Courtesy of Leon S. Benson, MD

  13. Scapholunate Ligament Injuries In 1984, Watson and Ballet described the inexorable degenerative nature of SL injury and coined the term SLAC wrist Courtesy of Leon S. Benson, MD

  14. SLAC • Scaphoid palmarflexes-shifts forces to the dorsum of the radius Courtesy of Leon S. Benson, MD

  15. SLAC • Lunate dorsiflexes-Capitate flexes and incongruous midcarpal joint Courtesy of Leon S. Benson, MD
