Wrist ligament surgery study: long-term results
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study looks at how well a specific wrist surgery (dorsal ligamentoplasty with an internal brace) works over time for people with scapholunate instability, a condition where the bones in the wrist are not stable. It aims to understand the long-term outcomes and help doctors know if this surgery is a good option.

This study looks at people aged 18–60 who have ongoing, painful wrist instability from a fully torn scapholunate ligament. It may help improve surgical approaches by carefully selecting patients whose ligament tear is complete and causing measurable joint looseness.
This study compares two different ways of moving the wrist after surgery to repair a specific wrist ligament (the scapholunate ligament). The goal is to see which type of early motion leads to better recovery.
This trial tests a surgical technique to repair a torn ligament in the wrist (the scapholunate ligament) using a part of a nearby tendon. It may be an option for people with this specific wrist injury who meet the health requirements.
This study tests whether adding virtual reality exercises to standard physical therapy helps people with a specific wrist ligament injury. It compares usual rehab with a program that uses fun, virtual-reality games to improve strength and control.
This trial compares two types of wrist surgery for osteoarthritis in the wrist bones (SLAC/SNAC stage II–III). It may help you and your surgeon choose the procedure that best improves pain and wrist function for your specific wrist arthritis pattern.
This trial looks at how well treatment works for people with a perilunate wrist injury. You may be asked to follow a specific care plan after surgery, including therapy, check-in visits, and questionnaires.
