An anterior portal for wrist arthroscopy. Anatomical study and case reports

J Hand Surg Br. 1999 Aug;24(4):445-7. doi: 10.1054/jhsb.1999.0166.

Abstract

We have found that the standard portals described limit arthroscopic access to and visualization of some areas of the radiocarpal joint. We describe a radial anterior portal, which we believe is useful in the arthroscopic treatment of wrist conditions and describe its use in clinical practice.
