Abstract

Different arthroscopic repair techniques have been described for various tear types. Several series have reported successful outcomes for arthroscopic repair of superficial tear of the triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) tears using the outside-in technique. Described techniques entail usage of special instruments for passage of sutures and/or use of many incisions. We describe an arthroscopic technique for repair of superficial part of TFCC through the 6R portal by single hypodermic needle, with no additional skin incisions or special equipment.<br /> (© 2022 The Authors.)
