Keynote webinar | Spotlight on sleep in brain health

LIVE: Thursday 2nd May 2024, 18:00-19:30 (CEST)

Quality sleep is essential for health. But what happens to our brains when sleep patterns are disturbed? Join our experts to explore the interplay between sleep disruption and neurological diseases, and the questions that you need to be asking your patients to help you prevent the harmful effects of sleep deprivation.

Abstract

Scapholunate (SL) instability is the most common form of carpal instability. Imaging (especially radiography) plays an important role in the staging, management, and postoperative follow-up of SL instability. In the final stage of SL instability, known as scapholunate advanced collapse, progressive degenerative changes occur at the carpal level. The goals of this article are to review the surgical options available for addressing the different stages of scapholunate advanced collapse, along with an emphasis on normal postoperative imaging and complications associated with each surgical option.
