title: [Salvage ligament repair following failure of arthrodesis of the lunate-triquetrum-hamate joint for internal instability of the joint. Apropos of a case report].
abstract: A case of posttraumatic carpal dislocation in volar inclination of the intermediary segment (VISI), treated by a lunate-triquetrum-hamate arthrodesis (LTH) is presented. This operation leaves the rupture of the radio-triquetrum dorsal ligament; rather the entire carpus rotates in supination postoperatively. This repair of the radio-triquetrum dorsal ligament permits realignment and stabilization of the carpus and results in resolution of pain.
