[Arthrolysis of the wrist, indications and technique].
The authors describe a technique of arthrolysis which can be used on the palmar aspect of the wrist, on the dorsal aspect, or on both capsular and ligamentous complexes. The procedure must not be performed before inflammation and retraction phenomena of capsular and ligamentous complex have completely ceased. The surgical procedure must be followed rigorously but is not especially difficult. Criteria for patient selection are emphasized because proper indication is crucial to ensure satisfactory results.
